Anyone know if the plant is discharging hot water these days? I know they weren't last winter due to the plant using gas instead of coal. Headed there this weekend and that may play into my plan of attack! Thanks
Hyco and Julian are not gas burning units, they are still coal, but due to natural gas being so cheap, these plants are not ran as often or as hard, and do not have as much hot water discharge.
You will only see hot water discharge at Hyco when natural gas prices spike up, or when it is very cold or hot and the plants need to run to supply excess energy.
Sutton on the other hand is no longer a hot water discharge since the coal plant was decommissioned and demolished.
