Argentina watch: CCGT calls, thermal tender update, San Juan renewables
Argentine state energy company Enarsa launched two tenders for projects to convert existing, open-cycle power plants to combined-cycle.
The first, with an official budget of 263mn pesos (US$15.3mn), seeks bids for civil works to finalize the water circulation system at Enarsa's Brigadier López plant in Santa Fe province.
The second, with a budget of 419mn pesos, is for similar works at the Ensenada de Barragán plant in Buenos Aires province.
Offers for both tenders are due August 28. More information on each can be found here, in Spanish.

Two thermoelectric power plants with combined installed capacity of 140MW have begun commercial operations, Argentina's energy and mining ministry said.
The 76MW Pérez and 64MW Cañada de Gómez plants were both awarded through a thermal energy tender conducted in 2016, and both can run on natural gas, gasoil or fuel oil.
Of the 2,870MW awarded through the two-part tender, 774MW are now operational, the ministry said, adding that another 1,812MW are due online this year.
