How dispatchable resources enable the clean energy transition

Platte River must prepare for the retirement of 431 megawatts (MW) of dispatchable, coal-fired generation by the end of the decade and address more frequent extreme weather events that can bring dark calms (periods when there is no sun or wind).

The project consists of demolishing the hospital’s 70,000-square-foot A Wing at the corner of Doctors Lane and Lemay Avenue at the north end of the hospital campus. A two-story, 111,000-square-foot structure would be built in its place.

The new building would have an emergency room/department on the first floor, additional patient beds on the second floor and a laboratory in the basement. The building would be constructed so two more stories could be added in the future.

The existing helicopter landing pad would be relocated to the roof of the new building, and three buildings would be demolished to make way for a parking lot between Hospital Lane and Luke Street to accommodate the new building.
