New York's Hudson Station Goes Offline for Repairs

---

Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Hudson Power Station, which is located in Jersey City, New Jersey, shut down its 659-megawatt (MW) Unit 2 on Friday, February 6, due to leaking tubes in the superheat section of the boiler. The station is owned and operated by Public Service Enterprise Group (NYSE:PEG) (Newark, New Jersey).

Officials said that they are still investigating, but have been able to isolate the tubes to begin repairs. Plant sources said that they have had ongoing issues with tubes leaking in the reheat and superheat sections. They will perform an analysis of the tubes during repairs.

Officials plan to return the unit to service on Monday, February 16, or as soon as repairs are finished, if there are no delays.

Unit 2 is the Hudson plant's only generating unit.
