Recent Overhead and Gantry Cranes Load Tests in California
The Encina Power Station (EPS) in Carlsbad, California, was a cornerstone of the region's energy infrastructure for decades. Built between 1954 and 1958, this oil-fueled plant significantly switched to natural gas in the 1980s. As a peaking facility, EPS played a vital role in meeting energy demands during peak usage. Its retirement on December 11, 2018, marked a significant milestone, paving the way for the future of sustainable energy in the region and signaling a crucial transition in the industry.
Today, the Carlsbad Energy Center (CEC) is a beacon of modern engineering and environmental responsibility. Located on the northeastern part of the former EPS site, the CEC houses five fast-starting turbines capable of generating 632 megawatts of power in under 10 minutes. Designed to address the region's energy needs while prioritizing environmental sustainability, the CEC's air-cooling system and advanced features make it one of the cleanest plants in San Diego.
