Vendor invoice
On April 19, 2017, our Waukesha generator became nonfunctional. With the
generator being outdated, we were required to have two of the turbos rebuilt
instead of buying new and replacing. Due to the nature of this repair, the
reinstallation of the turbos, and the work completed to get the generator back
operational, Highland Power was unable to provide a quote prior to completing
the work.
Highland Power has an existing contract with the City of Nashua for these types
of repairs, and has been the sole provider of repairs and maintenance to the
Waukesha generator since 2008. The Waukesha generator produces electricity for
the plant and/or power grid by burning methane produced through the digestion
process.
