Zamil Air Conditioners, a subsidiary of Zamil Industrial Investment Co. (Zamil Industrial), has been awarded a contract worth SAR 102 million (USD 27.2 million) from Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd., to supply custom air-conditioning systems for the Jeddah South Thermal Power Plant project, which is owned and operated by the Saudi Electricity Company in the western region of Saudi Arabia.

The discussions have been concluded and the contract was signed on Tuesday, 24 December 2013. The contract is expected to have a positive impact on the company's consolidated financials at the end of each stage during 2014 and 2015. The duration of the contract is 16 months and the company will begin supplying HVAC units in the second quarter of 2014 and end in the first quarter of 2015.
The scope of the agreement calls for Zamil Air Conditioners to supply a large number of water-cooled centrifugal chillers, air-cooled screw chillers, air-handling units of various types and capacities, roof-type packaged units, packaged air conditioners, ventilation fans, and accessories, as well as building management control systems for use in numerous buildings of various types at the site of this vital project. The supplied air-conditioning systems will provide a total cooling capacity of more than 12,800 tons.
The 2,650 MW Jeddah South Thermal Power Plant will use supercritical pressure technology to generate electric power by operating at such a high steam pressure that it uses less fuel and emits fewer pollutants than other types of steam generators.
