Bridgewater Power Company is located in the
scenic Pemigewasset River Valley in central New Hampshire. This
15 net megawatt plant burns forest residues and sawmill wastes, a low
quality and undesirable wood which is a renewable resource.
Bridgewater Power was constructed and brought
into service in eleven months for less than $1400 per installed
kilowatt. The plant has sustained operation at a capacity factor
in excess of 97%. The power plant has created jobs for area
residents and accounts for approximately 20% of the town of
Bridgewater's taxes.
The plant site provides easy access for trucks
delivering the fuel with minimum impact on residential areas; is
adjacent to electrical power transmission lines for wheeling to
Public Service of New Hampshire; and has it's own water supply.
