A Kiewit led partnership completed its last phase of a six year contract with Cartier Wind Energy by erecting the last of a total of 354 GE 1.5MW SLE windmills, scattered throughout 4 different wind farms in the Gaspésie region, Baie-des-Sables, Anse-Ã -Valleau, Carleton and Gros-Morne.
The Lower Mattagami River Project is a $1.7 billion investment into clean, renewable energy. It is the largest hydroelectric power generation initiative in nearly 40 years in Northern Ontario. Ontario Power Generation (OPG) selected Kiewit-Alarie, a Partnership (KAP) to administer the design-build project on the Mattagami River.
In October 2001, Kiewit was selected to engineer, procure and construct a new generating station for the Los Angeles Department of Water & Power. The project is the first in a multiyear plan to replace an outdated fleet of facilities. The award-winning station is a 500-megawatt, two-on-one, dual-fuel power generating facility.
The Kiewit team was awarded the contract for engineering, design, construction support and commissioning assistance for the 18-megawatt cogeneration facility. In spite of several challenges stemming from lack of documentation on the existing facility and a small working space, Kiewit's project team successfully integrated the existing facility with new equipment to meet the university's power needs.
Ontario Power Generation (OPG) awarded Kiewit-Alarie, a Partnership (KAP), the Design-Build contract for the redevelopment of the Wawaitin, Sandy Falls and Lower Sturgeon hydroelectric Generating Stations (GS), on the Upper Mattagami River and the Hound Chute GS on the Montreal River.
A Kiewit-led joint venture was responsible for the civil, mechanical and electrical design as well as construction of this $28.4 million 50-MW powerhouse. Throughout construction, the team emphasized the need to work toward a common goal by holding partnering sessions with project participants.
This 50-MW hydroelectric plant produces a non-consumptive, non-polluting and renewable form of energy for some 7,000 households. Built under an engineer-procure-construct contract, Peter Kiewit Sons Co. completed the project with minimal impacts to the surrounding landscape.
Located 20 minutes from Niagara Falls and just west of Lake Ontario, the Thorold Cogeneration Project is a 265-megawatt combined cycle cogeneration facility that will provide power to more than 100,000 Ontario homes, businesses and provides both steam and power to the existing Abitibi Bowater Paper Mill.
To decrease the cost of hydroelectric power and increase the demand for service, Peter Kiewit Sons Co. was awarded the bid-build contract to expand the Healey Falls Generating Station. Located about 15 kilometers north of Campbellford, the generating station will have a new unit in a spare bay inside the existing hydroelectric power plant once complete.
