They were also in the process of installing a new generator. That was also "20 megabytes" I am guessing from appearance that
it is a gas turbine.
The Ceiba plant is just down the road from me and I understand it to be 2 25MW gas turbines running on diesel fuel. It took about a month after the hurricane to fire up the first unit. The second one, I am informed, was inoperable. It was finally repaired and placed in service last week. When I drove by yesterday, both were running
3 weeks ago I was speaking with someone from Manati who told me at that time that the gas turbines (2 @25MW each) were not running. They did not know if they were inoperable or what the reason for being off was.
Do you know who is funding the cost of Diesel? Is it FEMA?
