Yellowstone Electric Co. has been awarded a $37 million contract to replace 12 transformers and related equipment at Glen Canyon Powerplant in northern Arizona.
Design, manufacture and installation work for the new transformers will take place between August 2017 and the spring of 2020, the Bureau said in a news release. The project is a first for Reclamation, as it will be the first to use transformers of this size filled with natural ester oils derived from seed and nut oils as the insulating liquid rather than petroleum-based mineral oils typically used in most transformers.
