FMPA successfully took ownership of a Bartow-area power plant last Friday. The newly-named Mulberry Energy Center is a natural gas combined cycle generation plant that will provide 115 MW for 13 Florida communities.
The Board of Directors met last Wednesday. The Board reelected Barbara Quiñones (Homestead) as Chair, Lynne Tejeda (Keys Energy Services) as Vice Chair, Bob Page (Green Cove Springs) as Secretary, and Allen Putnam (Beaches Energy Services) as Treasurer.
The Board of Directors will meet Wednesday at 8 a.m. at the Breakers during the FMEA Annual Conference.
FMPA is saddened to share the news of the Agency’s founding General Manager Calvin Henze’s passing last Tuesday.
The average billed demand and energy cost for FMPA’s All-Requirements Project in June was $63.50/MWh, which was 4% below the budgeted cost and was the third lowest June rate.
