• General Electric Steam Turbine

Alleghany Station, was originally designed as a cogeneration facility with the adjacent greenhouse as the host.  The greenhouse is currently in service, however, all interconnections between the two facilities were severed with the exception of a water supply line from the station to the greenhouse.
