Chinook Swift power station is a 350-megawatt (MW) gas-fired power plant, under construction (as of June 2019) 11 km northwest of Swift Current, in the province of Saskatchewan, Canada.[1][2]
Location
The map below shows the exact location of the power station 11 km northwest of Swift Current, the province of Saskatchewan, Canada.
Background
A combined cycle power plant, Chinook Swift has "a Siemens SGT6-5000F gas turbine generator, a Siemens SST6-900 steam turbine generator, and a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG). The HRSG will be a horizontal, natural circulation, three-pressure, reheat-type generator."[1]
SaskPower reported in August 2019 that the plant was near completion: "We've fired up the Gas Turbine for the first time and synchronized it to grid. Steam blows were done with gas turbine output between 20MW and 45MW."[3]
