The American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) of Iowa recognizes Empire District Electric Company's Scrubber Retrofit Project with an Honor Award.
Empire District Electric Company turned to Engineer-Procure-Construct (EPC) contractors Stanley Consultants and Alberici Constructors to retrofit their 216 megawatt coal-fired power plant in Asbury, Missouri. This initiative furthered Empire’s commitment to the environment by implementing a new air quality control system (AQCS) designed to lower the plant’s emissions.
