June 13, 2022--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Captive power plants (CPPs) are used and maintained by a commercial or an industrial energy user for their own energy consumption. They mainly are used by power-intensive industries where quality and continuity of energy supply are imperative, such as chemical plants, steel plants and aluminum smelters. Industrial Info is tracking eight CPP projects valued at US$542 million for Africa's Chemical Processing Industry.
