Big upgrades for Big Stone City power plant – see how it’s done!

Business is booming in the Midwest with the refurbishment and maintenance of aging power facilities. Updates in technology to reduce emissions are keeping electricians busy.

Members of the IBEW were called upon to get the work done quickly and correctly at the Big Stone City plant in South Dakota.

The goal is to reduce emissions with air quality control by installing upgrades, including selective catalytic reduction technology, activated carbon injections to reduce mercury emissions, and a reduction in sulfur and particulate emissions.
