Xcel Energy to spend $ 12 million to restore 14-MW Shoshone

摘要

Xcel Energy said it will spend about $12 million to return its disabled 14-MW Shoshone hydroelectric plant in Colorado to service by spring 2008.rnXcel shut down the 98-year-old plant in June when one of its two penstocks ruptured, flooding the powerhouse and switching yard with water and debris. The event sent 8 feet of water and tons of rock and soil into the powerhouse, the utility said.
