  1. Welcome

  2. GRU South Energy Center

  3. Anderson Illustration Association, Inc. 2006 Shands Project Site • Phase 1 – 500,000 sf – 192 beds • Build out – 3 M sf - 1,200 beds

  4. Overview The SEC Provides the following services: • Normal Power • Essential Power (NFPA 110) • Standby Power • Steam • Chilled Water • Medical Gas Infrastructure • Reclaimed Water

  5. Electric Power • 2 Grid Feeds from different substations • 1 Gas Turbine (4.3 MWe) • 1 Essential power generator (NFPA 110) (2.25 MWe) • 1 Black start diesel (turbine black start)(500 KWe) • Turbine and Essential power generator grid interconnect / island mode capable • Anticipated load ~2-2.5 MWe • Excess Power purchased by GRU

  6. Steam • 1 Heat Recovery Steam Generator (14,000 #/hr unfired / 45 K#/hr fired @ 110 psi) • 1 Package Boiler (30 K#/hr @ 110 psi) • Hospital load ~6,000#/hr

  7. Chilled Water • 2 Trane 1,500 ton chillers 42/58F • 1 York 1,200 ton steam turbine chiller 42/58F • 4 cooling tower cells • Reclaimed water cooling tower makeup • N+1 Capacity on Chillers, Pumps, and Towers • Anticipated hospital load ~2,200 tons

  8. Advantages of CHP at a Hospital • Reliable and Cleaner Normal Power • Full Standby Power Capacity • More Reliable Emergency Power • Grid Independent “Island” Power • Contribution of 7 LEED EA-1 Points

  9. Efficiency Comparison Typical Power Delivery .65 BTU Loss .06 BTU Loss 1 BTU In .35 BTU In .29 BTU In Power Plant Transmission System Hospital At a Coal Fired Power Station, about 35% of the primary fuel is converted into electricity; the remainder is lost “up the stack”. An additional 6% efficiency drop occurs in transmission to the site. Overall, at the Hospital’s meter, the result is roughly a 29% efficient primary fuel conversion to useful energy.

  10. Comparison Efficiency Cancer Hospital Power Delivery .25 BTU Loss 1 BTU In .75 BTU In CHP Plant Hospital GRU’s South CHP Energy Center at the Shands Cancer Hospital will be 75% efficient at primary fuel conversion to useful energy. This is a 46% savings in primary energy utilization compared to the Typical Hospital Power Service Model.

  11. Gainesville Regional Utilities (GRU) Municipal Owned Multi Service Utility Business Enterprise of the City of Gainesville– “Owned by the People it Serves” Approximately 810 Employees 90,000 Customers GRU Service Offerings • Water & Wastewater • Electric Supply and Delivery • Natural Gas • Telecommunications Fuel Expenditures are >$112 Million/Yr ($67M Gas & $45M Coal)

  12. SEC Staffing • 1 Production Manager (partial) • 1 Asset Manager (partial) • 5 Plant Shift Techs, non-juristictional classification • Facility manned 24x365 • Backup from other GRU resources
