This is a list of electricity-generating power stations in the U.S. state of New York, sorted by type and name.A more complete list can be found on the NYISO website in the planning data and reference docs section where an annual report call the Load and Capacity Data Report, or the "Gold Book" is listed.
Built by the New York Edison Company, the facility was located in the Murray Hill neighborhood on the east side of First Avenue between East 38th and 40th streets, alongside the East River. The Waterside station also later served as a cogeneration facility and generated steam for the New York City steam system.
Ravenswood Generating Station is a 2,480 megawatt power plant in Long Island City in Queens, New York City. [1] It is owned and operated by LS Power/ Helix Energy Solutions Group . [ 2 ] The plant is fueled primarily by fuel oil (no. 6) and natural gas which heats the boilers.
Bethpage Energy Center is a power station in Bethpage, New York, United States, consisting of two combined cycle plants opened in 1989 and 2005, and one gas turbine peaking plant opened in 2002. The original plant was commissioned by Grumman Aerospace for its Bethpage complex because it was deemed more cost-effective than purchasing power from ...
Approximately 30% of the ConEd steam system's installed capacity and 50% of the annual steam generated comes from cogeneration. [7] Cogeneration and Heat Recovery Steam Generation (HRSG) significantly increase the fuel efficiency of cogenerated electricity and thereby reduce the emission of pollutants, such as NOx, sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, and particulate matter, as well as the city's ...
Construction of the new plant was motivated by a 1990 deadline by the New York Department of Environmental Conservation to close town landfills due to their threat to groundwater, the source of Long Island's drinking water. [18] American Ref-Fuel won the contract to convert the plant to use a traditional dry process. [19]
Cogeneration or trigeneration production is subject to limitations in the local demand and thus may sometimes need to reduce (e.g., heat or cooling production to match the demand). An example of cogeneration with trigeneration applications in a major city is the New York City steam system.
In 2018, Danskammer Energy filed an application with the New York State Public Service Commission to build a new, larger plant uphill of the current site that would be a more efficient combined cycle facility with an air cooled condenser to reduce water draw, [2] and which would run as a baseload station (able to run all the time), rather than ...
