GNB Battery Recycling Plant
Location: Columbus, GA Type: Industrial Size: Three 4000A, 480V and Two 5KV Services
Design/build heavy industrial facility with power distribution, lighting, cable tray and recycling process equipment power and controls. Three 4000A, 480V services and two 5kV services. BCE did not become involved in this project until footings were well underway, and yet the backbone electrical distribution was required to be under the floor slab. This presented many challenges to stay ahead of the concrete trucks while at the same time designing a large and complex system.
The project was completed in less than a year from the time BCE began design. Special systems included 5kV compressor motors of the thousand-horsepower class, including transient motor starting analysis.
