Unit 02 at Ohio's Killen Power Station Forced Offline

---

Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Killen Power Station, located in Manchester, Ohio, tripped offline its 666 megawatt (MW) Unit 2 steam turbine Monday afternoon due to a boiler tube leak. The station is jointly owned by Dayton Power & Light Company (67%) (Dayton, Ohio) & Duke Energy (33%) (NYSE:DUK) (Charlotte, North Carolina).

Unit 02 was forced offline Monday night after officials discovered leaking tubes that required immediate repair. Repairs are currently underway, and plant officials are expecting the unit to return online Thursday night, barring further maintenance delays.

Killen Power Station unit #02 began operation in April 1982. Unit #01 was never constructed.
