Andritz will carry out major uprating works on the turbines and will supply new generators and rehabilitate the hydromechanical equipment of the generating units. It will also improve the safety and reliability of auxiliary systems, the Unit 4 cooling system, and support systems. New equipment, including a generator transformer and a powerhouse crane, will be installed.

The rehabilitation of Chenderoh is part of TNB’s broader Life Extension Programme for its plants.
