Re: 7/16/2024 Power Outage Update
On Tuesday July 16th, Big Six Towers experienced another power outage at 6:17pm. The power was restored within 20 minutes. The cause of this event was due to a control panel malfunction for diesel engine #2. When this malfunction occurred, engine #2 automatically shut down, which caused the remaining engines running to fail and cause a blackout. As previously mentioned, the back up generators that are on site must pull a load from the Power Plant in order to work, without the generators being on site, it would have been a challenge to get the engines in the Power Plant back up and running.
Big Six’s control panel specialist will be onsite today (Wednesday 7/17/2024) to investigate the cause of the failure. We do not anticipate any outages during this investigation, but it can be a possibility and would like everyone to be aware and prepared.
We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused and hope everyone continues to conserve energy and stays cool during this heatwave.
