Status:
Operating
Locations:
Blenheim, New York, USA
Blenheim, Schoharie County, New York, USA
Description:
Blenheim-Gilboa serves two vital functions. It saves money for New York consumers by providing low-cost electricity when they need it most. And it stores water for emergency power production. If necessary, this project can be up and running within two minutes. It can "pinch hit" if another plant or line suddenly goes out of service.
A $135-million four-year program to modernize and extend the life of the Blenheim-Gilboa project was completed in May 2010.
