27 February 2007 - ABB has been selected to supply key controls for Cleco Power's new $1bn, 660 MW unit at the Rodemacher power station site near Boyce, Louisiana.

ABB will supply the unt with burner management, boiler controls, and BOP controls for its two 330 MW circulating fluidized bed boilers.

The Rodemacher station currently generates 963 MW with its two existing units. Unit 1, fully owned by Cleco, is fueled by natural gas and low-sulfur fuel oil and produces 440 MW. Unit 2, jointly owned by Cleco, Louisiana Energy and Power Authority, and Lafayette Utilities System, is coal-fired and has an output of 523 MW. ABB's so-called "circulating fluidized-bed technology" will allow the new Cleco unit to use a diversified fuel mixture.

Presently under construction, the new unit is scheduled to be complete by late 2009.
