Will I notice any difference at the power plant?

 

The stack connected to the new wood-fired system will produce a noticeable increase in water vapor. This is because the wood chips are very moist — up to 50 percent water content — and the water evaporates as the wood burns. The steam, however, dissipates harmlessly into the atmosphere. Total emissions from the new stack will be significantly lower compared to the coal-fired system.
