“This project is an excellent opportunity to work with Southern Power to help Austin citizens use local fuel resources to help reach their renewable energy goals. We look forward to great relations with Nacogdoches County residents and officials as we construct this biomass power plant,” Fagen Chief Executive Officer and President Ron Fagen said.
Zachry Engineering Corporation (Zachry Engineering) has been contracted by Fagen to be the design engineer. Zachry Engineering will provide overall site design, balance of plant engineering and design coordination.
Fagen’s partner for the engineering, supply, erection, and commissioning of the biomass boiler and distributed control system is Metso Power.
Mitsubishi Power Systems Americas, a subsidiary of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Limited, is Fagen’s partner for the steam turbine.
Fagen’s partner, Wolf Material Handling Systems has the responsibility for the design, engineering, supply and commissioning of the Biomass Fuel Handling System. This includes truck receiving, processing, storage, reclaim and delivery of fuel to the boiler.
