Port Everglades Clean Energy Center

Project Description
As part of the overall revitalization of the 1960s-era Port Everglades Power Plant, it was necessary to provide a structural evaluation, condition assessment and modification plans, and inspections to the existing intake structure that fed the generators with cooling water. Based on our recommendations, the intake structure was rehabilitated safely in phases, requiring minimal disruption to other facilities being replaced.
FPL’s Port Everglades Next Generation Clean Energy Center entered service in 2016 and saves customers hundreds of millions of dollars in fuel costs compared to the old power plant.
