NSEB approved Nova Scotia Power's $601,706 unforeseen and unbudgeted work order for storm-damaged Dickie Brook Unit #1 repairs
AI summary
- The Nova Scotia Utility And Review Board approved Nova Scotia Power Inc's U&U capital work order (CI# 39406) totalling $601,706 for repairs to the Dickie Brook Unit #1 hydroelectric facility, as confirmed in a Board decision letter dated December 22, 2010.
- Storm surge flooding in January 2010 caused significant damage to the rotor, stator, shafts, and other components of Unit #1, necessitating emergency repairs to restore the unit to operation.
- In addition to storm-damage repairs, NSPI conducted penstock and draft tube remediation while the unit was already offline, with the Board noting that deferring this work risked forced outages and replacement energy costs.
- Portions of the work order were marked confidential and accepted by the Board as filed; the Board found the project necessary and its cost justified.
