Chinese firms NARI Group Corp. and Power China Guizhou Engineering Co. have been awarded an EPC contract to complete a 428-kilometer-long, 400-kV electricity transmission line in East Africa after bankrupt Spanish engineering and construction group Isolux Corsan pulled out.
The electricity transmission line in Kenya was 70% complete by the time the Spanish firm, which applied for bankruptcy in July 2017 over a $501-million debt it owed suppliers, ended its involvement.
