The Hickory Run Energy Centre is scheduled to start operation in spring 2020. In addition, Siemens has signed a long-term service agreement to help ensure the reliability, availability, and operational performance of the units. The service will include Siemens’ advanced remote monitoring and diagnostics.
Siemens will deliver two H-class turbines, one steam turbine, and three generators. The gas turbines and steam turbine will be manufactured at Siemens’ Charlotte Energy Hub, which is the main production facility for Siemens’ 60 Hz power generation.
