Drews Generation Project

Colton, California

The Drews generation project is a 42 MW simple-cycle power plant on the Drews substation owned by the City of Colton. The project consists of four General Electric model 10B1 simple-cycle gas turbines rated at 10.5 MW each, along with associated equipment. 

The Drews project lies in a highly sensitive area for several endangered species. Habitat for the Los
Angeles pocket mouse and Delhi Sands Flower-loving fly surrounds the Drews substation. Alliance Power limited construction to the existing substation and along existing roads. This reflects Alliance Power's commitment to the environment and was in accordance with USFWS requirements.
