The Sanger generating station is a natural gas combined cycle electrical generating station that has been successfully retrofitted with a General Electric LM6000 turbine. The facility is expected to see an annual fuel requirement reduction of 23%, or approximately $2 million in savings.
Chris Jarratt, executive director of Algonquin Power, said: While the facility has demonstrated a very successful operating history since its original commissioning in 1991, advances in turbine technology provided an opportunity to substantially improve the fuel efficiency of the facility.
