The Proposed Project

The Department of National Defence (DND) is proposing a project. The purpose of this project is to replace the existing generator with a new one as it has exceeded its typical life expectancy which could lead to multiple issues as well as be in non-compliance with modern codes. This includes the replacement of the generator and distribution infrastructure with a new 500 kW genset and enclosure.
