NORESCO was selected to commission and is operate this 11-Megawatt cogeneration facility to provide electricity requirements and hot water for the Goodrich Aerostructures Division.
NORESCO also played key project roles in EPC negotiation and management, as well as development of long-term arrangements for the provision of natural gas.
Through our 10-year Operations and Maintenance agreement, NORESCO manages all day-to-day operations including, equipment operations and condition, quality and chemistry of service water, fuel and other feed streams, maintenance of logs and reporting of operating data.
NORESCO is also responsible for planning and undertaking all maintenance, repairs, and major rebuilds as well as procurement of liquid fuel and natural gas.
This project has three distinct areas: a cogeneration building, separate equipment pad, and a piping used for transporting thermal energy. The cogeneration system utilizes reciprocating engines to generate electricity and hot water for use at the Goodrich facility via three Fairbanks Morse, 12-cylinder, opposed piston, dual-fuel reciprocating engine/generators.
The plant employs the best available control technology to limit emissions, including selective catalytic reduction (SCR) to control NO, and an oxidizing catalyst to control CO. The plant also employs state of the art sound control to limit noise impact on the surrounding area.
All equipment is networked to a supervisory control system consisting of a programmable logic controller (PLC), a control room operator workstation, and a control room engineering workstation. The system is integrated with NORESCO's centralized reliability, maintenance and operations programs and all control and information signals can be monitored on-line through NORESCO's secure web-based Operations Center.
