Juice

OK, this is something that is just a bit odd. I know that Jamaica is different fron here, and that the people are apt to be different in subtle ways, but I had not thought the oddness extended to naming power plants.

They have ordered a second floating power plant, called a “power Barge” to supply electricity to Old Harbor Bay. The new barge will be equipped with three generating sets, each driven by a Wärtsilä 18V46 engine. The barge will be provided with all necessary ancillary equipment for independent operation, including treatment plant for the heavy fuel oil used by the engines and a 138 kV electrical substation. The generating plant has a gross output of 51 MW, giving a net output from the barge of 49.5 MW. The electrical power will be fed into the distribution grid of the utility company Jamaica Public Service Co Ltd.

The first barge was called Dr. Bird The second is Dr. Bird2

Yes, Dr. Bird makes juice.
