Environmental Stewardship
The facility utilizes natural gas, which is one of the cleanest burning of all fossil fuels, as its primary fuel source.
Technology and Environmental Performance
The gas turbines utilize the GE DLN-1 (Dry Low NOx) combustion systems which produce 9.0 ppm or less of NOx emissions when burning natural gas and 54 ppm or less of NOx when burning ultra-low sulfur fuel oil with water injection.
Safety Excellence Management
Brandywine Power employees participate in a Site Safety Committee to promote workplace safety and health best practices at the facility. The site has not had any lost time incidences since being commissioned in October of 1996.
