Applicant owns the Fort Drum Cogeneration Project (the Facility), which is located at the Fort Drum Army Base near Watertown, New York.

The Facility also includes three diesel engine generators that are located at the Facility site and have been used for back-up power, but had not previously been part of the QF. Each of the three distillate oil-fired engine generators has a net electrical capacity of one megawatt. Applicant may install an additional steam turbine that would utilize for power generation the steam that has previously been extracted for useful thermal energy output. If this turbine is installed, the Facility's total net electric capacity would be 60 MW, including three MW of net capacity from the diesel units. A third party will operate the Facility and sell the Facility's electrical energy, capacity and ancillary services exclusively at wholesale.
