It is currently on cold standby, and as of 2005 AES planned to either install new pollution controls at the plant, or shut it down.<ref>[http://www.4cleanair.org/NewYorkPSDSettlements.pdf New York PSD Settlements: AES and NRG Cases], Jan. 27, 2005.</ref> In 2008, New York's Department of Environmental Conservation reported on the status of the plant as follows:<ref>[http://www.dec.ny.gov/enb/20080827_reg7.html ENB Region 7 Completed Applications 08/27/2008]</ref>:The Department is proposing to modify and renew the SPDES permit for AES Jennison Generating Station. The AES Jennison Generating Station last operated in 2000 and there are no plans Moved to restart the facility in the near future. The generator and turbine have been removed and both the intake and discharge canals were permanently sealed. As the only discharge will be from stormwater runoff and building sumps, the facility will no longer be permitted as a power plant. In 1999, AES purchased six power plants in New York (including the Jennison station) from NGE Generation, Inc. for $953 million.<ref name="aesny953">[http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-54638215.html "AES completes acquistion of six power plants in New York with total capacity of 1424 MW",] Business Wire via High Beam Research, May 14, 1999.</ref> The other stations included in the deal were [[AES Somerset Generation Plant|AES Somerset]], [[AES Cayuga Generation Plant|AES Cayuga]], [[AES Greenidge Generation Plant|AES Greenidge]], [[AES Hickling Generation Plant|AES Hickling]], and [[AES Westover Generation Plant|AES Westover]].<ref name="aesny953"/> {{#display_map:42.276861, -75.479222 |width=600|height=400|type=satellite|zoom=14}} ==Plant Data==*'''Owner''': AES Jennison LLC*'''Parent Company''': [[AES]]*'''Plant Nameplate Capacity''': 60 MW (Megawatts)*'''Units and In-Service Dates''': 30 MW (1945), 30 MW (1950)*'''Location''': Route 7, Bainbridge, NY 13733*'''GPS Coordinates''': 42.276861, -75.479222*'''Electricity Production''': 0 MW (2005)*'''Coal Consumption''':*'''Coal Source''':*'''Number of Employees''': ==Emissions Data==*'''CO<sub>2</sub> Emissions''': 0 tons (2005)*'''SO<sub>2</sub> Emissions''': 0 tons (2005)*'''SO<sub>2</sub> Emissions per MWh''':*'''NO<sub>x</sub> Emissions''': 0 tons (2005)*'''Mercury Emissions''': ==Articles and Resources=====Sources===<references/>*[http://www.eia.doe.gov/cneaf/electricity/epa/epat2p2.html Existing Electric Generating Units in the United States, 2005], Energy Information Administration, accessed Jan. 2009.*Environmental Integrity Project, [http://www.dirtykilowatts.org/Dirty_Kilowatts2007.pdf "Dirty Kilowatts: America’s Most Polluting Power Plants"], July 2007.*[http://www.epa.gov/enviro/html/fii/fii_query_java.html Facility Registry System], U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, accessed Jan. 2009.*[http://carma.org/dig Carbon Monitoring for Action database], accessed Feb. 2009.*[http://www.netl.doe.gov/energy-analyses/pubs/database/XLS%20CPPDB%202007%20PvT%20-%20Public.zip NETL Coal Power Plant Database], National Energy Technology Laboratory, U.S. Dept. of Energy, 2007.*[http://www.epa.gov/air/data/geosel.html AirData Query Database], U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, accessed April 2009. ===Related SourceWatch Articles===*[[Existing U.S. Coal Plants]]*[[New York and coal]]*[[AES]]*[[Former coal plants]]*[[United States and coal]]*[[Global warming]] ===External Articles=== {{stubGEM}} [[Category:United States]][[Category:Corporations]][[Category:Environment]][[Category:Energy]][[Category:Climate change]][[Category:Existing coal plants in the United States]][[Category:Existing coal plants in New York]][[Category:New York]]
