New cogeneration plant to supply needs of a city
- City of Vineland Electric Utility (United States)
Vineland, N.J. finds that it will be less costly to buy power from a QF cogeneration plant than to build its own plant. Since August 8, 1899, the City of Vineland Electric Utility (CVEU) has continually met the needs of its customers with utility-owned generating equipment. However, on May 30, 1991, it reached a handshake agreement with Cogeneration Partners of America (CPA), the agent for Vineland Cogeneration Limited Partnership (VCLP). On August 13, 1991, the Vineland city council approved the contract to purchase energy and capacity from a non-utility generator. This paper reports that under the provisions of the contract CVEU will purchase 46.5 MW from VCLP's cogeneration project at Progresso Foods in Vineland.
