Moran Iron Works was awarded the contract to supply design, engineering, fabrication, and installation of two exhaust systems for Wolverine Power. The exhaust systems were installed at Wolverine’s Alpine Power Plant located in Elmira Township near Gaylord, Michigan. The plant utilizes two General Electric Frame 7FA.05 turbines for natural gas to generate over 430 megawatts of nameplate electricity.
MIW’s exhaust system design employed noise abatement guidelines and resulted in two of the most efficient exhaust systems in use. The systems required approximately 800 tons of steel to construct.
