Sandy Creek Energy Station

Welcome to the Sandy Creek Energy Station. The construction of this electric generation facility began in 2008 just outside Riesel, Texas. Commencing operations in 2012, this station houses a 900-megawatt super-critical electrical generating unit powered by low sulfur sub-bituminous coal from the Powder River Basin.

Equipped with advanced technology, the station features a range of components including a pulverized coal boiler, steam turbine generator, cooling tower, auxiliary boiler, and Air Quality Control System. This system utilizes various methods such as Low NOx burners, SCR, and ACI for emissions control.

Operating in compliance with stringent regulations, the Sandy Creek Energy Station manages its Coal Combustion Residuals (CCR) Waste through on-site disposal in a designated landfill or off-site sales. The station adheres to federal and state environmental guidelines, ensuring responsible and sustainable waste management practices.
