Pella Light Plant Powers Mills Mills and Markets
The Pella plant delivers 1300 psi steam to GE 25 000 kW and Elliott 10500 kW units and uses a 7000 gallon daily No 2 oil package unit. It recycles steam after cooling and feeds hydrogen cooled generators. The flex plant can produce 26000 kilowatts and serves Pella Cooperative Electric Assn and Iowa Power and Light. The site has two way links, a red IPALCO line, and a master control room with alarms. Staff has grown from six to fifteen, with shifts monitoring the panel and maintaining logs to improve efficiency and lower costs.
