Sturgis Dam could be going away, here’s what the city is considering
Currently, the dam produces 6.6 million kilowatt hours of energy per year. The city uses about 219.8 million kilowatt hours, so the dam produces about 3% of the city’s total electricity in a year, Sturgis Electrical Superintendent Chris McArthur told Watershed Voice.
Sturgis is known as the “electric city” and the dam is a core part of the city’s identity. This is something McArthur noted during their last meeting when expressing some of his hesitancy to consider more invasive options like decommissioning. However, the dam’s relatively small contribution to the city’s electricity supply has promoted questions about whether its operating and maintenance costs are justified.
