1. Facility Information
Dearborn Industrial Generation, LLC
2. Location
2400 Miller Road, Dearborn, MI
3. Distance from US/Canada Border
Approximately 5 km
4. Facility Type and Size
Electrical generation facility that operates three natural gas-fired turbines (approximately 170 MW each), three boilers (output capacity of 500,000 lbs of steam per hour), two open flares (approximate heat input of 480 MM btu/hr and 1292 MM btu/hr), and two diesel fuel-fired emergency generators.
5. Sources of Emissions
Proposing to install one simple-cycle natural gas-fired combustion turbine generator at the facility. The proposed combustion turbine generator will be used for peak loads when demand for electricity is high. The proposed turbine will be rated up to 271 MW.
