Cogeneration Plant

The Cogeneration Plant provides approximately 90% of the electricity and 100% of the steam needs of the main campus. This used to be the boiler plant until its expansion in 1987 when cogeneration was added. Three existing boilers were kept which are now used as back-up for campus steam requirement. Electricity produced is rated at 12KV while steam is available at 120psig. The plant operates 24/7/365.
