Bayonne Energy Center II

Bayonne Energy Center II (BEC II) is an expansion of existing facility (Bayonne Energy Center I). This plant is an expansion of the existing eight (8) Rolls Royce Trent 60’s dual fuel gas turbines that operate in a simple cycle plant configuration with the ability to run with any number of turbines in operation.

Project utilizes gas fired/oil fired simple cycle arrangement to be dispatched in response to energy demands of NYISO.

• DCO was EPC contractor for this 128 MW Electric Generation Project.
• Major equipment is two (2) Siemens Rolls Royce Trent 60 combustion turbine generators capable of running on natural gas and ultra-low sulfur No. 2 oil.
• Project is an expansion of existing facility consisting of eight (8) Rolls Royce Trent 60 turbines.
• Electric from turbines generated at 13.8 kV, voltage stepped up to 345 kV through a transformer located adjacent to the turbines.
• Project ties into the existing electrical service to the Gowanus substation through air terminal disconnect switches.
