Questions: Serge Beauzile at 863-834-6511 or Serge.Beauzile@ieee.org After a very active 2004 Hurricane season the Veterans Administration embarked on a program to provide their Medical Centers with upgraded campus level standby generation. This campus level generation would augment the existing critical emergency circuit only power allowing each Medical Center Campus to continue operations with the loss of utility power. The VA Bay Pines Medical Center installed additional 8 MW of standby generation resulting in the ability isolate from utility power and provide power to the Medical Campus for 10 days before requiring additional fuel. This site visit will be a walking tour of the installed generation and discussion of the operations of this site and interconnection with the local utility. “IEEE” signs will be placed to guide you to parking as well as meeting location.
