I had to go work on a machine in the Power Plant today. While I was there they graciously gave me a tour of the place. Each generator is a 1.4MW generator. They have 3 in this room and a second set of 3 in another building right next to this one. They also have 3 wind turbines.
The generators are quad turbocharged. They consume about 50 gallons of fuel an hour. The exhaust from them is almost 1000ยฐF. They then use the exhaust to heat most of the town by heating glycol and pumping it to the buildings.
The computer station is where they monitor all the generators and the electricity output 24 hours a day.
