Furthermore, energizing the USD105 million, Wilson City Power Plant on Grand Bahama, which hasn't been operational since construction began in 2012. A 5-MW or greater capacity coal-fired power plant such as Wilson needs a sufficient load in order to operate, Burgess said in an interview. The Wilson City Power Plant comes in at 48 MW.
Grand Bahama and Abaco, Grand Bahama in particular, contributed funds, as well, according to Burgess. New distribution lines stretch 30 miles (48.3 kilometers) to generation sites, such as the Wilson City Power Plant on Grand Bahama, Burgess continued.
