Detail InformationEdit
The Kettle Generating Station, conjointly referred to as Kettle Rapids Generating Station, could be a run-of-the-river electricity station on the Lower Lord Nelson stream in Manitoba, Canada. It’s situated half-dozen kilometre (4 mi) northwest of Gillam. As a part of the Lord Nelson stream electricity Project, the facility station was completed in 1973 and therefore the last generator commissioned in 1974. It’s associate put in capability of one,220 MW and is that the second largest station in Manitoba.Construction on the station began within the spring of 1966 and it had been administrated in many phases. First, the facility house was created when a circular coffer dam was attack the proper facet of the stream. Second, the spill was designed adjacent and to the left of the facility house whereas the stream flowed through the facility house within the meanwhile. Once the spill was complete the complete the stream was amused through it. At this time, the turbines and generators were loaded into the facility house and therefore the earth-fill section on the dam’s Latin Quarter was completed. The primary generator was commissioned in December 1970 and 7 generators were operational in Gregorian calendar month 1973 once the station was formally opened. The last generator was commissioned in November 1974.Of the river’s 885 m (2,904 ft) dimension, the facility house covers 380 m (1,247 ft) or forty three %. The spill covers twenty two % within the center of the dam and therefore the earth-fill dam completes the remaining thirty five % long. The dam’s spill is controlled by eight floodgates and might discharge up to eight,349 m3/s (294,842 metallic element ft/s) of water. The facility house contains twelve one02 MW propeller-type turbine-generators for associate put in capability of 1,220 MW. Every rotary engine will discharge up to 270 m3/s (9,535 metallic element ft/s) and area unit afforded thirty m (98 ft) of hydraulic head.
