Powering Progress at Otjikoto 🌱⚡

The Otjikoto Biomass Power Station has reached a major construction milestone with the delivery of two steam drums, essential components for the plant’s two 20 MW boilers.

Manufactured in China and transported via Walvis Bay to Tsumeb as abnormal loads, the delivery required detailed planning, specialised transport, and close coordination across long distances.

A steam drum is where water is converted into high-pressure steam — the driving force behind electricity generation in a thermal power station.

The arrival of the steam drums signals the project's movement into its most critical construction phase.

With a 250-ton mobile crane already positioned on site, all is in place for offloading and installation as construction momentum continues to build.
