KIBBY WIND POWER PROJECT

    

Spring arrived early this year and Reed & Reed is well underway on a busy 2010 construction season on the Kibby project.

Last Fall, the Reed & Reed project team worked diligently to complete the B-Series civil work ahead of schedule for a quick start to erection this spring. The crane paths and WTG pads for all of B-Series were completed.  All 22 WTG foundations were completed and stand ready for delivery and erection of turbines. 

Last Fall also saw the completion of erection and commissioning of the A-Series. The 22 WTG comprising the A-Series were placed on line ahead of the October 15, 2009 contract date and are producing 66 MW of power.  

The delivery of the B-Series Vestas WTG equipment to the Port of Searsport took place this Spring.  Twenty-two 3.0 MW machines were delivered from Denmark and temporarily stored.  The tower sections were fabricated and stored over the Winter at Marmen in Quebec, Canada.  Delivery of the WTG equipment to site for erection started May 17, as soon as road conditions allowed.

One of Reed & Reed’s Manitowoc 16000 crawler cranes has been mobilized to site.  The 440 ton crane, carrying 315 feet of boom, will be the primary erection crane for the WTG equipment.  The crane was mobilized while the ground was still frozen to avoid any delay in the start of erection. As of this mid-June, 8 WTG machines are erected on B-Series. 

Tower electrical work is underway and the units will start to be accepted for MCC. Scheduled work for 2010 includes: erection of B-series WTG equipment and installation of B-Series electrical collector.  The 22 B-Series machines are scheduled to be commissioned and on line, delivering an additional 66 MW to the grid in October. 

The entire Kibby Wind Project will be completed and on line, producing 132 MW of power on schedule this Fall.
