TNB announced on Bursa that it has been selected to champion Project 3A, a 1,000MW coal-fired power plant development at Manjung, Perak. This is within our expectation given that TNB, together with partner Marubeni Corp from Japan, was previously rumoured to have put in the lowest bid of 22.78 sen per kWh. Maintain BUY, with our FV unchanged at MYR8.98 pending the official release of its 3QFY13 results tomorrow.
- The chosen one. Tenaga Nasional (TNB) has been selected to develop the 1,000MW coal-fired power plant in Manjung, Perak. The letter of award for the project, with a construction period of 45 months, will soon be issued and the plant is expected to come online on 1 Oct 2017.
- Not surprised. The announcement came within our expectations given that TNB, together with its partner Marubeni Corp from Japan, was rumoured to have put in the lowest bid at 22.78 sen per kWh. The other finalist i.e. 1Malaysia Development, which teamed up with Mitsui Japan, is believed to have submitted a bid of 24.86 sen per kWh.
- MYR2.5bn-MYR3bn capex likely. With this project in the bag, we estimate that TNB’s generation capacity would breach the 15,000MW mark come 2018. This takes into account its existing expansion projects, which include the 2x535MW site in Prai, Penang, as well as its hydro plants of 265MW in Hulu Terengganu and 372MW in Ulu Jelai. We estimate that this new 1,000MW coal-fired power plant would cost MYR2.5bn-MYR3bn over the next four years, with the project IRR likely to hover between 8%-11%.
- Maintain BUY. All in, we are positive on the news as TNB continues to expand its footprint within the power generation segment. We make no changes to our forecasts, FV of MYR8.98 and BUY recommendation pending the official release of its 3QFY13 results tomorrow evening.
