據天然氣加工新聞網6月2日報道，日前，巴拿馬總統洛倫蒂諾·科爾蒂索(Laurentino Cortizo)宣布，在這個中美洲國家尋求增加清潔能源份額之際，將建造一座耗資10億美元的天然氣發電廠。

　　Cortizo稱，這座名為Gatun的電廠將位于科隆港附近的Telfers島，在巴拿馬首都巴拿馬城巴拿馬運河的另一端，發電能力為670兆瓦。

　　政府消息人士告訴路透社，該工廠將在 2023 年末或 2024 年初開始運營。

　　據一份聲明稱，由私營公司 InterEnergy Group 和 AES Panama 以及政府組成的財團巴拿馬能源天然氣集團(Consortium Consorcio Group Energy Gas Panama)，將負責該工廠的建設、開發和運營。

　　Cortizo 補充道，政府不會提供資金。

　　根據 InterEnergy Group 的預測，Gatun 將創造 3,000 多個直接和數千個間接工作崗位。
