Combustion Turbine Generation Facilities: Ensuring Reliable and Cost Effective Power for Our Customers
Show Notes

On Episode 27 of the TID Water & Power Podcast we sit down with TID Combustion Turbine Department Manager, Mike Tehada, to discuss the District's combustion turbine generation fleet .  

California has set a goal of 100 percent carbon-free retail energy by 2045 and, as such, natural gas power plants have come under fire. But with extreme heatwaves, like we experienced across the state the last few summers, and will again this summer, the need for reliability and available generation capacity remains. 

On this episode we discuss the District’s combustion turbine power plants and the role these power plants play to ensure reliable and cost effective power for our customers.
