| The Canyon Power Project is a
200 MW peaking power facility, located on a 10-acre
plot in the center of Anaheim’s industrial
center. The project consists of four GE LM6000
simple cycle turbines with state-of-the-art emission
reduction equipment and will be utilized by Anaheim
(sole owner of the project) during the summer
to satisfy customer peak demand as well as provide
reserve requirements as required by the Cal ISO’s
reliability mandates.
The facility will also be utilized to provide
back-up support to Anaheim’s renewable resources
coming from wind and hydro energy.
The project is expected to cost $260 million
and is expected to be in commercial operation
during the summer of 2011.
The project will include a thermal energy storage
unit to augment air conditioning of the control
building, and 127 kW of solar panels installed
on the roof of the control building.
