Orange County <br />March 23, 2016 <br />Page 7 of 11 <br />10 <br />Capital Power is a North American wholesale power generator headquartered in Edmonton, Alberta <br />Canada. The Roxboro facility was built in 1987 and has a capacity of 48 Megawatts. It consists of 3 stoker <br />grate fired boilers which are equipped with fabric filter baghouses for particulate control. This equipment <br />configuration could be amenable to firing SRF with minimal equipment upgrades. <br />CMP <br />n C <br />ka <br />ate, Uri <br />J <br />CSI % <br />,"rya <br />u <br />A boro FUillty Duke <br />Enetey ProjresslNC) <br />J CPIUSANCPOxboro- <br />U �n;xe,..'..

The district energy steam plant, shown in Figure 3, includes <br />two coal- fired, circulating fluid bed boilers which can produce 500,000 lbs. per hour of steam each and 28 <br />megawatts of electricity. The each boiler is equipped with a fabric filter for particulate control.13 This <br />equipment configuration could be amenable to co- firing SRF. An overhead view of the facility appears to <br />indicate that all fuel deliveries made to the facility are via railcar, something that would need to be <br />confirmed and accommodated. <br />In UNC's2009 Climate Action Plan, UNC indicated an interest to utilize landfill gas from the County's closed <br />Yc 2RI rl reo ooD <br />landfill and testing of dried wood pellets anddacc�fied -wler� as supplemental fuels for its coal -fired cogen <br />boilers. If their interest in biomass fuel could be re- directed to a biogenic SRF instead, the fuel <br />requirement of the cogen boilers appear large enough to absorb much more than the quantities of SRG <br />that could be produced from the MSW and C &D materials generated in the County. <br />" University of North Carolina Energy Services Department, Cogeneration Facility. <br />http: / /www.districteneray.org /assets /pdfs /CHP Case Studies /UNCChagelHill.pdf <br />"""` 7 GBB/C15099 -02 <br />GBB °a�:� �:M= <br />
