The Power Engineering awards program recognized eight projects
as finalists across the four categories of Natural Gas, Renewables,
Coal, and Combined Heat and Power. Projects were evaluated based on
technological innovation, local impact, logistical challenges,
creativity and capacity. The project was also recognized as the
2016 Natural Gas-Fired Project of the Year.
“We are proud that Brunswick County Power Station has been
recognized with this respected industry award,” said Wolfgang
Greinke, vice president of Fluor’s Power business. “With a history
