Increasing demand for electricity around the globe, especially in developing nations, is indicating towards the potential growth in power construction across the world. Very latest survey conducted by the International Energy Agency (IEA) confirms that China, the US and India are the three major coal-fired power generating nations, who are putting their best efforts in developing power plants at different places. While for natural gas, the US, Russian Federation and Japan are decidedly developing their natural gas base in order to meet the requirements in years to come. And for the nuclear power; the US, France and Russian Federation are the biggest power generators, having robust infrastructure.
You merely have to go into the predictions of scheduled power station projects across the globe to find tower crane operators will have an action-packed year in the future, keeping up with the ongoing and proposed power plants. In line with the World Resources Institute (WRI), over 1,000 coal-fired power generation units are in the pipeline, with the majority in China and India, having strong support from the domestic and international agencies.
Advanced crane systems with LSI wireless GS550 display and other important safety devices will have a great role in building power generating units in several nations. Major crane operators like Manitowoc, Liebherr, Potain, and others are taking the upcoming year 2015 as the most favorable year for their business.
In another place, the Middle East is planning to setup nation’s first ever nuclear power plant projects with the help of Russian state energy giant Rosatom Corp with a deal worth US$10bn. the United Arab Emirates looks forward to building 4 nuclear reactors with a joint 5,600MW capacity by the end of 2020, and Egypt is planning to develop a 1,000MW reactor in the coming year.
