Siemens will supply four turbines to a power plant near Egypt's Suez City to add more than 650 MW of power generation to the country's national grid, it said in a statement on Tuesday.

The German industrial group said it was awarded a contract to supply the E-Class turbines to the Attika Power Plant under a deal with El Sewedy Power System Projects. The statement did not give a value or timeline for the contract.
