The firm Competitive Power Ventures (CPV) was retained to finish construction, and to operate the plant.A second, 231-megawatt unit is expected to be completed in a few months, CPV vice president Peter Podurgiel told Reuters. CPV is majority-owned by Warburg Pincus LLC, a New York-based private investment company.
