Plant engineers at Alabama Power decided to upgrade damper drives for each of two coal-fired units at the James H. Miller, Jr. Electric Generating Plant. The two units, similar in design and having 25 years or more of service, each have a 720-megawatt capacity. High maintenance levels for the original Bailey drives, along with a growing scarcity of parts, provided the economic justification for replacing 45 damper drives for each boiler.
