The project was to have added another 14 MW to the plant's capacity, bringing it to 186 MW. Alstom Power Hungária Rt and Schneider Hungária Rt were the general contractors for the project. Construction works were carried out by Vegyépszer Zrt, and Budapesti Erőmű paid for 70% of the project's costs with loans.
The Kelenföld plant generated 3,000 terajoules of thermal energy and almost 600 GWh of electricity in 2005, according to Budapesti Erőmű's report for the period. The company sold 1,432 GWh of electricity and 9,136 terajoules of heat energy during the year. Budapesti Erőmű provides 60% of Budapest's district heating.
