Chevak's New Power Plant Shipped Out
Chevak is getting a new modular-style power plant that includes a control module and three engine-generator modules that were built up at AVEC’s headquarters in Anchorage. Other support modules consist of a cold and warm storage module; a lubricating oil storage module; and an emergency living quarters module. The generator and control modules are on their way to Chevak via barge and will be placed on pilings.
The fully automated power plant is scheduled for commission in 2009 with a total diesel-engine generating capacity of 1,777 kW. Four Northwind 100 wind turbines will also be erected, providing an additional 400 kW generating capacity. The new, fuel-efficient diesel engines and the wind turbines will eventually reduce the amount of diesel fuel consumed.
