Associated Electric Cooperative Incorporated (AECI) needed to add capacity to their grid by making use of some idle generating equipment. The P1 Electrical Preventative Maintenance team took on the task of refurbishing two 20 megawatt generating stations, each measuring 18’ long x 12’ wide by 12.5’ tall, and weighing 28,000 lbs.
These units act as small powerhouses that supply an extra boost when the demand on the grid is high. They were brought online in the 1970s, decommissioned in the 90s, and have been dormant since.
Due to sheer weight of the units, Belger Cartage Service was used to pick the units off of a trailer and roll them into P1’s on-site breaker refurbishment and repair shop.
