Alliant Energy’s West Riverside Energy Center in the town of Beloit wins an engineering award.
The natural gas-fired plant has received a 2021 Engineering Excellence Best of State award from the American Council of Engineering Companies of Wisconsin.
The facility competed in the energy category and won the award based on the skill and creativity shown in engineering.
West Riverside Energy Center is Wisconsin’s newest and most efficient natural gas generating station. Put into operation in May 2020, it features the latest technology including the use of a plume abatement system and state-of-the-art water treatment process equipment.
TOWN OF BELOIT
A new solar energy field designed to feed power to Alliant Energyâs new West Riverside Energy Center is expected to be operating by the end of February or early March, Alliant officials say.
Bob Newell, senior manager of strategic projects, said the 4-megawatt solar field in the town of Beloit will produce auxiliary power to boost the main natural gas-fired plantâs productivity.
âIt will help offset some of that parasitic energy consumption that other equipment uses,â Newell said.
The main plant produces an average of 700 megawatts of electricity dailyâenough for more than 550,000 customers. It uses about 18 megawatts of electricity on its own to keep the lights on and equipment functioning.
