William Birch Rankine Generating Station: Powerhouse in the Park

摘要

The 74.6-MW William Birch Rankine generating station sits on the Niagara Parkway, one of Canada's most scenic drives, and just a few feet from Niagara Falls. While millions of tourists have passed the site, most have no idea that the beautiful stone building is an electrical generating facility. Rankine, which has generated power continuously for 100 years, is a good example of how scenic beauty and electrical technology can co-exist.
