Hopkins-2 Repower Location: FL Operator: Tallahassee Electrc Utilities Configuration: 300-MW, 1+1 CCGT with 7001FA+e gas turbine Operation: 2008 Fuel: natural gas, oil HRSG: Nooter T/G supplier: GE, WH (existing) EPC: Sargent & Lundy, BE&K, Quick facts: In Oct 2005, the City of Tallahassee decided to accelerate the conversion of Unit-2 at A B Hopkins Generating Station from a 230-MW gas- and oil-fired steam-electric plant based on analyses conducted by Sargent & Lundy. A two-phase project was initiated, first to convert to a 1+1 CCGT block and then to add a second GT at a later date. Construction permits were received in Nov 2006 and the 1+1 block began operating in mid-2008 as planned without any lost-time accidents and about 8% under the $156mn budget. The GT has DLN 2.6 burners and the fired HRSG has an SCR. Emerson supplied its Ovation DCS. Arvah B Hopkins served as the Tallahassee City Manager from 1952 until 1974.
