Tapping into a renewable natural gas project for the first time, Interstates recently worked with Gevo to build a central biogas purification site and connect it to three different dairies in Northwest Iowa. Interstates provided Gevo with power distribution, PLC design and construction, programming, instrumentation, and heat trace work.
MEDIUM / HIGH VOLTAGE PROJECT EXPERIENCE THARALDSON ETHANOL Interstates designed the 15kV distribution system for Tharaldson Ethanol’s greenfield ethanol facility near Casselton, ND. The medium voltage system provided power from an onsite utility substation to all portions of the facility. Project Challenges The medium voltage system needed to accommodate future plans to double the size of the facility.
