@ravinaproject @NalcorEnergy The wicket gates that control flow into the machine can go from fully closed to fully open in 8 seconds, but controls need to follow load, share demand across other generators, and keep the power system stable. Lots of work to model and configure for reliable operation [2/2]

@ravinaproject @NalcorEnergy The Muskrat generators are 84 pole machines, and turn at 85.71 RPM. Each turbine has a governor that adjusts water flow into the unit to adjust generator output power as required to stay synchronized to the grid. [1/2]

If you see a @NalcorEnergy pickup in @CityofStJohns today, chances are there are @RNC_PoliceNL officers inside. It’s an example of one @GovNL entity helping another during a challenging situation. Impressive. #nlstorm2020
@PhilipEarle @Town_HVGB @quebec @RamonaDearing I understood Quebec made winter (not necessarily studded) tires mandatory. caaquebec.com/en/on-the-road…
@NavilluSTruK @BairdTom Yes, there is that 35m high column of water above the turbine ;-)
@BairdTom @NavilluSTruK GHG emissions in construction materials manufactured elsewhere were not considered, 300,000 tonnes of portland cement were estimated for both (approx 200,000 tonnes CO2e), but majority required for MF. Over 100 yr, this gets lost in rounding.
@BairdTom @NavilluSTruK During the EA, lifecycle GHG emissions, including construction and reservoir emissions were assessed for Gull - 100 yr average is 0.14 Mt/yr. (Ref: Table 3-12, LCHGP EIS) If Gull displaces coal, the coal number is 12 Mt/yr.
@NavilluSTruK @NalcorEnergy No, our impoundment plan included a hold period after initial spillway gate closure on Aug 7; it was independent of CF’s spill decision.
@BillMontevecchi Approximately 460,000 cubic metres of wood were cleared from the MF reservoir. Excluded areas included required water body buffers and on steep slopes. Work was complete in accordance with plan described by @NalcorEnergy during EA.
@KBS_NL @NalcorEnergy No and no. Water levels are driven by flow, and snowmelt is major contributor to flow - driven by temps & precip. across the entire region.
@KBS_NL @NalcorEnergy The 2017 & 2012 curves look similar in mid May, but the '17 curve started from a lower value.
@NalcorEnergy Water levels at English Point in May 2012 were similar to today's. Here's a link and the graph : wateroffice.ec.gc.ca/report/histori…
@bradcoady ... and produced 1.5 Mt CO2e GHG emissions in NL for 2013 - about the same as total for refining, commercial, and residential uses.
@NalcorEnergy Here are recent upstream and downstream views from the Muskrat Falls spillway.

@NalcorEnergy Looking through a forest of rebar @ Muskrat Falls powerhouse. New powerhouse crane in background.
@TCHGV @NLHydro @Paul_Keating73 @jasonhbishop No, each TL is on separate structures.
@KBS_NL @NalcorEnergy Yes, the two 315 kV lines and the 25 kV construction power line all cross near the upper falls location.
@KBS_NL @NalcorEnergy Yes, the wood pole line is for construction power. It was built before the 315 kV lines, but we have space on the 315 kV structures for it.
@KBS_NL @NalcorEnergy Here's a picture taken late last week looking upstream from the spillway bridge.
