Finland-based steelmaker Ruukki has announced that it has signed a contract to deliver 9,000 mt of metal-coated, high-strength steel to the Spanish company CIE EGANA to manufacture the support arms for the parabolic reflectors in a new thermosolar plant to be built in Morocco. The new thermosolar plant will have an output of 125 megawatts, making it one of the largest in the world, and is the first to be built in Morocco.
Ruukki's deliveries will begin at the start of 2014 and consist of metal coated, high-strength steel which will both strengthen and lighten the structures whilst the superior surface protection will prevent corrosion and extend product lifetime.
