  • Abstract
    This plant is the first hydroelectric installation in the upper midwest area subject to a temperature range of +105 to −30 degrees Fahrenheit. Built into the masonry substructure of a retired 10-unit plant, economics, climate, and the site dictated the incorporation of design features and innovations to assure all-weather operation.
