Scope Of Work
The Owner received a FERC License Amendment and other approvals, authorizing the design and construction for the re-development of their Hydroelectric Project. The existing facility includes a powerhouse with three 1,248-kilowatt (kW) generating units and two 1,200-kW generating units, for a total installed capacity of 6,144-kW. The facility also includes a combination of earthen and concrete dams and radial gated spillways to form the impoundment.
Based on a series of feasibility studies and investigations, the Owner determined that the optimum redevelopment plan was to construct a new 9-megawatt (MW) capacity powerhouse with two 4.5-MW SAXO turbines and an addition of a new three-bay radial gateway spillway.
