The generating station plays a significant role in New Brunswick’s electricity supply. Credit: NB PowerA partnership led by FlatironDragados has entered into a development phase agreement with New Brunswick Power Corporation (NB Power) for rehabilitation works at the 672MW Mactaquac Generating Station. The MLAP aims to address structural and equipment deterioration at the generating station, attributed largely to alkali-aggregate reaction, which has caused expansion and cracking in the concrete. “We are proud to work alongside NB Power and our partners to rehabilitate this vital generating station to enable delivery of reliable renewable energy for decades to come.” The generating station provides 30% of New Brunswick’s legislated renewable energy requirements and about 20% of its peak capacity, according to NB Power.
