Tufts Cove Power Generating Facility Tour
Join us for an exciting in-person tour of the Tufts Cove Power Generation Facility in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, on Friday, July 18th, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM.
This tour offers a behind-the-scenes look at one of Nova Scotia's key energy generation facilities. The plant was originally constructed in 1965 and has undergone several upgrades and addition over the years.
The facility is operated by Nova Scotia Power; the Tufts Cove Generation Station plays a crucial role in supplying electricity to the province and supporting renewable generation. The plant consists of three traditional steam units, two combustion turbines, and one HRSG(Heat Recovery Steam Generators). Attendees will gain insights about the power generation processes, what it takes to ensure the plant operates reliability 24/7, and the plant’s transition towards cleaner energy.
The tour will be supported by the Plant Manager, Operations, Maintenance and Engineering Departments.
Car-pool arrangements will be coordinated after sign-up and will depart from two locations:
- Dalhousie University, Sexton Campus, Halifax
- Macdonald Bridge Terminal, Dartmouth
Transportation to the tour location and back from these two locations are guaranteed.
If you are able to bring PPE (Steel-toed shoes, Hardhat, Safety Glasses) please do so, otherwise they will be provided. Close-toed shoes at a minimum are REQUIRED.
