CAPX · Business line

Power generation Capex

Capex generates electricity at the Agua del Cajón thermal plant, linked to its gas chain. Fuel processing and combined-cycle operation connect hydrocarbon production with electricity sales to the Argentine power system.

HOW THIS TYPE OF BUSINESS WORKS

Who it serves

The electricity system and energy buyers, including large users under contracts.

How the business works

Power plants convert an energy source into electricity. Depending on each asset’s framework, remuneration may reflect delivered energy, available capacity and contract terms.

What drives this activity

Plant availability, dispatch, fuel costs, renewable resources and contracts.

The business in practice

Selected products, companies and assets from corporate publications.

Agua del Cajón: from gas to electricity

The Agua del Cajón combined-cycle plant in Neuquén uses gas from Capex’s own reserves. Its electrical connection delivers power to Argentina’s interconnected system. Extraction and generation are therefore linked stages within the group.

Its place in Capex

Capex combines hydrocarbon extraction and processing with electricity production. The connection between energy resources and industrial facilities is central to understanding its activities.

Economics of the whole company

Business economics · explained by La Plata

Customers, operations & revenue

Capex links oil and gas resources with processing and power generation. This integration connects feedstock with several commercial uses, but each stage has its own costs and investment needs. Liquids and electricity are distinct products with different buyers and marketing terms.

What shapes business performance

Field output, industrial availability and product prices need separate analysis. Higher extraction does not ensure more cash if it requires additional drilling or expansion. Renewable investment adds exposure to natural resources and sales contracts, different from a thermal plant’s fuel economics.
