The Pettibone Creek Hydroelectric Restoration Plan

The Pettibone Creek Hydroelectric Station Milford Michigan
Phase II Hydroelectric Restoration Plan 2009

History

All of Henry Ford’s Village Industries were built where water power existed and had been used by early settlers. Ford improved the waterpowers in each case, but Milford’s site was unique. Here a flume or penstock (4-foot diameter steel pipe) was buried under ground and laid across the Upper and Lower Mill Pond beds, traveling almost 2/3 of a mile to the hydroelectric plant on Liberty Street. Ford took advantage of the topography and also built a dam on Moore Lake, creating the 50-foot headwater that powered the generators.

Once inside the building, the 48 inch diameter pipe is split to feed two hydraulic turbines in the basement. A shaft then connected each turbine to a generator located directly above on the main level. The two generators were rated at 75 and 62.5 KVA. When synchronized with the other hydro plant Ford built on the Huron River, the power was distributed to the manufacturing plant via underground cables across the lower mill pond. Both hydroelectric could be operated from the control room in the carburetor plant.

What we want to do

We at D & R Energy Services Inc. and the Powerhouse Restoration Committee want to bring back the grandeur of the Pettibone Creek Hydroelectric Station to its full potential. Just think of supplying electricity to light Central Park at night. How about helping power the Well House and maybe the Iron Removal Plant too? This could mean a potential savings of $80,000.00 per year to the village of Milford. Maybe just for fun we light 13,333 60w light bulbs. This can be a reality that is obtainable.

Originally, the station contained two vertical, Francis type turbines, one 75 KW and one 62.5 KW capacity, manufactured by the James Leffel Company. We have contacted James Leffel Company and working with their engineering staff, plan to install one generator rated for 100KW capacity. The new generator will be located in the lower level keeping the main level open.

Most of the original controls are still located on site and we plan to integrate the new with the old. Original equipment needs to be restored and will take time. New controls will be housed in the old cabinets to keep the look and feel of 1939. Possibly in the future remote monitoring can be installed and anyone with internet can see how much electricity the hydro plant is producing day or night.

How we can do it

In Phase I, many hours were dedicated to restoring the architecture of this treasure of Michigan’s Past.
You can help in Phase II of the restoration dream – once again producing electricity from the power of Milford’s waters. Not only will there be a need of financial support but also help with making ready for the generator.

If you would like to help, please feel free to visit www.milfordhistory.org or www.milfordpowerhouse.com. We at D & R Energy Services will also be able to answer any questions you may have, visit us at www.drenergyservices.com.
Any and all financial support will be used to make this endeavor a reality for generations to come.

How you can help

Saving a local landmark depends on help from many sources:
•    Preservation Grants
•    Local business support
•    Community support
By utilizing these three sources of financial revenue and professional skill Phase I of the projecgts has been completed.

Now it’s time to chip away at the rest of the plan.

You can be a part of Milford’s history and restoration of the Pettibone Creek Hydroelectric Station in a number of ways:
•    Make a donation
•    Buy a brick
•    Become a member

Henry Ford would be proud of the efforts of the people of Milford and the surrounding communities in this restoration effort.

Detroit Edison Plans Electric Hike

Increase Could Appear On August's Bill

Associated Press
2:10 PM CDT, June 26, 2009

Detroit Edison Co. plans to raise average monthly residential electric bills by $1.25.Michigan's largest utility said Friday the increase would appear on August bills, though regulators have until July 26 to weigh in.Utilities can increase power bills on their own if the Michigan Public Service Commission doesn't act within six months of a rate request being filed. Refunds with interest must be paid if regulators decide a utility charged too much.Edison plans to raise rates temporarily until January while waiting for regulators to act on a bigger rate proposal.Residents could pay $7 more per month than now depending on what regulators allow, though Edison now said it's asking for less because of savings in operations and lower fuel costs.

Michigan gets $32.8 million to cut energy usage

Updated at 4:20 p.m.

Michigan will receive $32.8 million in federal grants to reduce energy consumption in homes and businesses, U.S. Department of Energy Secretary Steven Chu announced Monday.

That’s part of $82 million the state will receive overall for energy programs under the federal stimulus plan.

Chu, who visited Battle Creek, said Michigan will use the money to help reduce energy consumption in public buildings by 20% by 2012, and create new markets for renewable energy systems, particularly wind energy.

The grant will pay for energy audits of 500 homes and businesses, conducted by the state’s two largest utilities, DTE and Consumers Energy. The audits will be used to develop energy efficiency methods to be used statewide.

The money could also be used to offer grants or loans to small businesses use more renewable energy sources.

The money will come from a $3.1 billion portion of the federal stimulus plan aimed at helping states reduce energy consumption and shift to renewable energy.

“This funding will provide an important boost for state economies, help put Americans back to work, and move us toward energy independence,” Chu said in a prepared statement. “It reflects our commitment to support innovative state and local strategies to promote energy efficiency and renewable energy while insisting that taxpayer dollars be spent responsibly.”

Gov. Jennifer Granholm, who accompanied Chu in Battle Creek, said the federal grants will help the state diversity its economy by promoting the renewable energy industry and create jobs.

Michigan will coordinate a state energy policy through the governor’s office, the Legislature, energy companies and consumers, according to the statement. Gov. Jennifer Granholm plans to announce further details for the use of the money.

Chu was in Battle Creek to promote President Barack Obama’s United We Serve initiative to encourage community service.

Recovery Act Announcement: Secretary Chu Announces $93 Million from Recovery Act to Support Wind Energy Projects

http://apps1.eere.energy.gov/news/progress_alerts.cfm/pa_id=164
(Original Article)

National Renewable Energy Laboratory to receive more than $100 million from Recovery Act

In an ongoing effort to expand domestic renewable energy, U.S. Secretary of Energy Steven Chu today announced plans to provide $93 million from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act to support further development of wind energy in the United States during a visit to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory today. Secretary Chu also announced more than $100 million in funding from the Recovery Act for NREL facility and infrastructure improvements.

The funding will leverage the Department of Energy's national laboratories, universities, and the private sector to help improve reliability and overcome key technical challenges for the wind industry. These projects will create green jobs, promote economic recovery, and provide the investments needed to increase renewable energy generation.

"Wind energy will be one of the most important contributors to meeting President Obama's target of generating 10 percent of our electricity from renewable sources by 2012," said Secretary Chu. "The projects funded by this opportunity will advance wind technology so that it can reliably supply a substantial portion of our nation's electricity. They will also help in creating more new jobs and expanding a clean energy economy.

• $45 million for wind turbine drivetrain R&D and testing

  DOE will provide $45 million directed toward enhancing the federal government's ability to support the wind industry through testing the performance and reliability of current and next generation wind turbine drivetrain systems.

  This investment will deliver dependable and cost effective hardware for utility scale wind turbines with over a 20 year design life. Overall, this project will help to improve the country's competitiveness in wind energy technology, lower capital costs of wind systems, and maintain a high level of wind energy capacity growth.

• $14 million for technology development

  To strengthen its support of the wind industry, DOE will make available $14 million to advance technology development in the private sector. This effort will aim to improve the quality and use of lighter weight, advanced materials for turbine blades, towers, and other components. Another area of emphasis will be process controls for lamination, blade finishing, trimming, grind, painting, materials handling and inspection.

• $24 million for wind power research and development

  DOE will provide $24 million for the development of up to three consortia between universities and industry to focus on critical wind energy challenges. These partnerships will allow universities to establish research and development programs to advance material design, performance measurements, analytical models, and work with the industry to improve power systems operations, maintenance and repair, and component manufacturing.

• $10 million for National Wind Technology Center

  DOE will invest $10 million at its own National Wind Technology Center in Colorado. This funding will enhance the National Renewable Energy Laboratory's ability to support the wind industry through testing current and next generation wind turbine drive train systems for better performance and reliability. Additionally, upgrades to the electrical distribution system will permit cost recovery of the power produced by two new utility-scale wind turbines being installed there for testing and evaluation.

Additionally, under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory will receive:

• $68 million for Research Support Facility

  This project will create the nation's most energy efficient office building at the same cost of low efficiency commercial construction today. It will achieve LEED Platinum and 50% energy use reduction over standard commercial office buildings. The goal is to create a design process that can be replicated by future construction projects.

• $19.2 million for Renewable Energy and Site Infrastructure

  Will use solar and potentially geothermal and fuel cells to replace power currently purchased from utilities and reduce our carbon use.

• $13.5 million for upgrades to the Integrated Biorefinery Research Facility

  New funding will create a continuous process research and development capability to develop commercial scale cellulose to ethanol technologies. It will also accelerate the development of commercially viable conversion processes.

Wind energy is among the fastest growing energy technologies in the United States. The U.S. now leads the world in wind energy generation and has led the globe in new wind energy capacity installations for the past four years. Last year, wind energy accounted for 42 percent of all new energy generation capacity in the United States. In 2008, DOE published the 20% Wind Energy by 2030 report which examines the technical feasibility of using wind energy to generate 20 percent of the nation's electricity demand by 2030.

Green jobs can help boost economy

The Hill, a Washington newspaper, today ran the following column from Senator Stabenow as part of their Earth Day special edition. Senator Stabenow lays out her plan for energy and climate legislation that will be focused on creating new jobs and revitalizing our economy.

Green jobs can help boost economy

By Senator Debbie Stabenow

My state of Michigan is home to some of the most beautiful natural wonders you will ever see. Of course, we are surrounded by the Great Lakes, the largest freshwater system on Earth. We are also home to some of the most breathtaking vistas in the world, from the Sleeping Bear Dunes on the coast of Lake Michigan to the Pictured Rocks on the coast of Lake Superior. People from Michigan understand the importance of protecting our environment. It is so central to who we are, it might as well be in our DNA.

We are also in the midst of a terrible economic crisis. Michigan has felt the pain of this economic crisis far longer than any other state. Our unemployment continues to be the highest in the nation, a dubious distinction we have held for 34 months.

This Earth Day, as we consider new policies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we need to create a workable solution that will protect the environment and create much-needed jobs.

We cannot sit back and do nothing. Our economy cannot move forward while chained to the same old dependence on foreign oil and pollution that harms both our health and economic interests.

If we approach this issue in the right way, we have a significant opportunity to create new jobs and spark an economic transformation. Our climate policy must work for the working people in this country, whether they are farmers, manufacturers, or clean-technology engineers.

Happily, with new energy solutions come new jobs and new industries. America has always led the world in innovation and invention, and we can do it again with clean energy. Yet, the economic crisis has made it harder than ever for firms creating those technologies to get financing. Unfortunately, traditional lenders are wary of making investments in untested new technologies.

That is why the federal government must be willing to support these emerging industries. I have joined with Senator Jeff Bingaman in calling for a Clean Energy Fund to provide financing for these cutting-edge industries. The Senate version of the budget included this fund, and it will likely be included in the energy bill we will take up later this year.

A Clean Energy Fund is absolutely critical so that we do not trade a dependence on foreign oil for a dependence on foreign technology.

Is there any wonder that as manufacturing jobs have vanished, so too has our middle class?

Other countries are investing heavily in green technology. Unfortunately, the United States has been behind the curve. The good news is that we are beginning to catch up - the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act included $2 billion for advanced battery research and manufacturing; it also included a new tax credit to encourage the manufacture of renewable energy products. Those are the kinds of investments we need to continue making to help create a clean energy future while also saving and creating manufacturing jobs in America.

A balanced energy policy can revitalize America's manufacturing sector, creating good-paying jobs and strengthening our middle class.

A wind turbine contains over 8,000 individual parts: nacelles, rotors, rotor blades, gearboxes, brakes, generators, yaw mechanisms, electronic controllers, hydraulics systems, cooling units, towers, anemometers - even simple wind vanes. Why not build those right here in America? In fact, we can! I am proud to say we can build all 8,000 parts in Michigan.

We cannot just use green technologies; we have to make them in the United States. Recent history has shown what happens when we rely primarily on foreign sources of energy: we subject ourselves to less-than friendly international governments who can manipulate supplies to increase prices and hurt the American people. If they can do it with oil, they can do it with wind turbines. We must not allow it.

The health of our environment is the legacy we will leave to our children. The solutions to our current problems must be equitable and fair. More importantly, they must create new opportunities for innovation and new, good-paying jobs. If we do this right, we can leave our children with a planet - and an economy - that is in better shape than we found it.

"Of all the forces of nature, I should think the wind contains the largest amount of motive power—that is, power to move things. Take any given space of the earth's surface— for instance, Illinois; and all the power exerted by all the men, and beasts, and running-water, and steam, over and upon it, shall not equal the one hundredth part of what is exerted by the blowing of the wind over and upon the same space. And yet it has not, so far in the world's history, become proportionably valuable as a motive power. It is applied extensively, and advantageously, to sail-vessels in navigation. Add to this a few windmills, and pumps, and you have about all. ... As yet, the wind is an untamed, and unharnessed force; and quite possibly one of the greatest discoveries hereafter to be made, will be the taming, and harnessing of it."
