Deutsche Bank AG leads 147 million euro financing for Kazanorgsintez
The bank has signed an agreement to finance the turn-key construction of a 250 Megawatt (MW) combined cycle gas turbine power plant in Kazan.
Deutsche Bank AG, acting as Sole Mandated Lead Arranger and Lender together with a syndicate of two banks, today announced an agreement to provide a 15-year, 147 million euro credit facility to Kazanorgsintez PJSC (member of TAIF group). The financing will be used for the construction of a 250 MW combined cycle gas turbine power plant in Kazan, Republic of Tatarstan, Russian Federation.
German Export Credit Insurance Agency Euler Hermes AG is backing the credit facility, having previously backed two other loans that Deutsche Bank AG lead-arranged as part of a banking syndicate in 2018 to support the long-term investment plans of NizhnekamskNefteKhim PJSC, another company in the TAIF Group.
In addition to Deutsche Bank AG, the banking syndicate comprises two other German banks: Bayerische Landesbank and Landesbank Baden-Wuerttemberg.
The new gas turbine power plant is due to be commissioned in 2023 and will have a combined cycle efficiency of more than 51 percent. It will also create new jobs in the region and will have a positive environmental impact by using syngas (a by-product of ethylene production) as feedstock.

We are pleased that this represents the further expansion of our cooperation with the TAIF Group, in what will be an important and beneficial project for the region.”
