Water Supply / Middletown, Connecticut
Kleen Energy Power Plant Water Supply System
Client: Kleen Energy SystemsWhat we faced
We provided permitting, engineering design, and construction administration services for the water supply infrastructure to serve a 620 megawatt, gas fired power plant located on 137 acres in Middletown, Connecticut. Water would need to be conveyed a distance of over 1 mile and 500 vertical feet above the source and required treatment to meet strict water quality standards for the power facility. The project was designed for a peak daily flow rate of 5.8 mgd. The water withdrawal system was also designed to provide supplemental supply for potential municipal potable supply in addition to the power generation facility.
