Energy

This business line focuses primarily on the development, design, construction and maintenance of industrial plants and conventional energy (cogeneration and combined cycle) and renewable energy (bioethanol, biomass, solar, and geothermal) power plants.

When applied to power generation plants, the Operation and Maintenance (O&M) business line carries out preventive, scheduled and corrective maintenance of equipment and systems, and operates them to ensure that the facility operates reliably and is meeting its technical specifications, the ultimate aim being to minimize fuel consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions while maximizing the load factor (actual vs. projected electricity generation).

Abener

Abener is a market leader in engineering and construction geared towards sustainable development. The key to the company’s ongoing success is innovation, penetration of new emerging markets and its commitment to the environment.

Abener currently operates in three areas of business: solar, biofuels and generation. The company performs turnkey EPC projects using its own engineering capacity and knowledge management processes and also carries out operation and maintenance work (O&M). Abener champions sustainable development and international development through its network of engineering firms and subsidiaries, namely AG Ingeniería (Spain), Abener Poland, Abener North America, Abener India and Abener México.

The company has cemented its position in the Spanish solar energy market with the commissioning of three 50 MW solar thermal power plants at the Solucar platform
(Solnova 1, Solnova 3 and Solnova 4). In tandem with this, construction work is now underway on the solar platforms in Ecija, Extremadura, Cordoba and Ciudad Real, all in Spain. All these facilities comprise two 50 MW plants utilizing parabolic trough technology, with the exception of the Extremadura facility, which features four 50 MW plants.

A major milestone on the international stage was the company’s completion of the world’s largest ISCC plant in Morocco (482 MW). Abener also expects to start up a further ISCC plant in the first half of 2011. These two ambitious projects have afforded Abener a position of technological leadership worldwide and underscore the company’s unflinching commitment to society and the environment.

In the solar energy division, Abener secured contracts to construct what will be two of the world’s largest solar thermal power plants, namely Shams-1 (100 MW) and Solana (280 MW gross), located in the United Arab Emirates and North America, respectively, and both currently under construction. The Shams-1 project was awarded under an EPC agreement through an international tender process staged by Masdar. The developer is the company Shams One Company, comprising Masdar, Total and Abengoa Solar. Thanks to just shy of 600,000 m² of parabolic troughs, the plant will generate enough electricity to supply 62,000 households.

The Solana project, the world’s largest solar power plant with 280 MW of gross power, utilizes parabolic trough technology with thermal storage achieved through molten salts to extend the hours over which the plant can operate during the day and at night. The contract also envisages full EPC. 

Abener has strengthened its leadership in engineering and constructing bioethanol plants by completing work on one of the world’s largest bioethanol plants in Rotterdam (the Netherlands), and two other large plants in the United States (Indiana and Illinois). As a further illustration of its commitment to innovation, Abener is currently collaborating with the client to develop second-generation bioethanol plant technology for the Hugoton plant in Kansas (USA), which will run on cereal straw instead of grain.

Abener has also enjoyed considerable success in the conventional electrical power generation market, ranging from upgrade work and simple/combined cycles to motor and cogeneration plants. The operational success of these industrial facilities is a fine illustration of Abener’s formidable capacity in this area. Prime examples include the construction work currently underway on the new 300 MW cogeneration plant for Pemex, and the two 70 MW biomass cogeneration plants (bagasse and sugarcane) in Brazil, which were completed in 2010. 

Operation and Maintenance 

The O&M division worked on five different plants in 2010: Four cogeneration facilities sited in Alcantarilla (Murcia), Motril (Granada), Ayamonte (Huelva) and Cuevas de Almanzora (Almeria), all in Spain, and the Ain Beni Mathar ISCC plant in Morocco. The total power output of all these facilities combined amounts to 579 MWe.

2010 also saw the O&M division select the staff who are to form part of the O&M team for the 150 MW ISCC plant in Hassi R’Mel (Algeria). This new workforce is actively involved in the start-up of the plant and is applying the wealth of experience built up by Abengoa in handling O&M work on North African plants. This know-how will be enormously useful for further developing solar power production facilities within this market, one of the strategic horizons offering the most promising opportunities for the company in terms of business operations.

In 2010, the company successfully implemented a new maintenance management system at the Ain Beni Mathar ISCC plant in Morocco, which will afford it greater management control and efficiency at the plant. The next plant to feature this same system will be the 150 MW Hassi R’Mel plant in Algeria.

 

Installations

As part of Abengoa’s strategy of specializing in key areas, 1994 saw the company incorporate Instalaciones Inabensa SA, the parent company of this particular line of business, which encompasses all activities associated with electrical and mechanical installation work, instrumentation, large power lines, railroad business, maintenance, manufacture of electrical panels and cabinets and telecommunications, all of which have been core activities at Abengoa since its inception back in 1941.

In Saudi Arabia, construction got underway on the high voltage 132 kV power line in Qurayyat for the SEC (Saudi Electricity Company). The company is also constructing the Jeddah and Riyadh GIS (Gas Insulated Substations), both 380 MW and 132/13.8 kV, again for the SEC.

The manufacturing segment also fared well thanks to the company’s subsidiary in China, which was involved in projects for various different clients and countries.

 

Telecommunications

The telecommunications division constructs and maintains outside plant, supplies customer loops and equipment and integrates products and services in order to deploy, install and operate telecommunication networks. This is carried out by both Abentel and Inabensa’s own communications divisions.

Abentel

During the year, the company continued to work on the 2007-2012 Global Customer Loop Agreement with Telefónica de España SAU, with implementation ongoing in the provinces of Alicante, Badajoz, Barcelona (where Abentel’s initial stake of 7 % of the province has been extended to 10 %), Cadiz, Jaen, Madrid, Seville, Tenerife and Valencia. Abentel is Telefónica’s chief collaborator on this particular agreement in Spain.

Over the year, 256,000 new customer subscriptions were secured for Telefónica (132,000 for voice, 110,000 for ADSL and 13,000 for Imagenio) and nearly 500,000 faults were repaired.

As part of the activities envisaged in the agreement, Abentel has been involved in the project awarded to Telefónica by the Spanish government to roll out the Iris Nova Network throughout Spain, with the scope of the network mirroring the territorial scope of the agreement. To date, a fiber optic network has been laid to link different universities and state-owned research centers, with a grand total of 1,000 km of cable containing 64 optical fibers laid in eight of the nine provinces awarded under the agreement.

Abentel is also taking part in a project to transform Telefónica’s access network. The initiative entails the gradual implementation of FTTH (Fiber To The Home) networks throughout various Spanish cities. The work essentially involves preparing the trunk infrastructure and the end-user access infrastructure through fiber optic cables in order to provide Telefónica customers with the considerable bandwidths that these networks have to offer. The infrastructure deployed to date extends to 32,500 households, which are supplied through 143 km of fiber optic cable (between 64 and 256 optical fibers) for the trunk network, and nearly 200 km of 32-fiber or less cable for the end-user access network.

Inabensa Communications Division

 Inabensa’s communications projects embrace the design, supply, manufacture, assembly and testing of telecommunication systems and equipment.

Marketing and Ancillary Manufacturing

Within this field, Abeinsa primarily manufactures and markets products related to the business unit’s activities, while also producing auxiliary elements for energy and telecommunications.

Nicsa held on to its dominant position in the Spanish market and consolidated its international status as a supplier of electric materials, instrumentation and communications for the chemical and petrochemical industries, refineries, combined cycle, solar thermal, nuclear and thermal power plants and heavy industry in general. In 2010, the company successfully tackled a number of major projects and its subsidiaries in Mexico and North America reported very healthy results.

Abencor continues to focus its business model on the markets typically associated with sustainable development. The company was primarily engaged in creating three new areas in 2010, specifically two sales divisions (one dedicated to Spain and the other to overseas markets) and a procurement division. The Spain division is focusing on existing customers, catering to their needs and forging as close a relationship as possible, while the exports division is mainly targeting business in Latin America (Brazil, Chile, Peru and Mexico), Europe (Portugal and Germany) and the Far East (especially India). The procurement division is geared more towards relations with the company’s key suppliers, while also formulating offers and seeking out and endorsing attractive new products.

In 2010, Eucomsa further cemented its standing as a prime supplier of solar structures, accounting for over 70 % of the company’s total performance. It also regularly improves upon the design of parabolic troughs, thus making them more competitive within the market and affording Abengoa significant cost savings. Along with the solar energy business, highlights for 2010 include projects carried out for REE as part of the company’s core tower manufacturing business.

Driven forward by the wealth of experience and know-how it has built up in exports, Comemsa remains very active in the Latin and North American markets, where it created the company Power Structures in 2009 to sell its products and provide customer service.

Comemsa is engaged in the manufacture of metallic lattice towers for power lines, structures for electrical substations and telecommunications towers. In 2010, it increased its floor and storage area to meet heavy demand and ensure full customer satisfaction.
