Pulliam Power Plant

The John Page Pulliam Power Plant is a coal power plant in Green Bay, Wisconsin. It was named after John Page Pulliam (Unknown-June 15, 1951), a former Wisconsin Public Service corporation president. There are four units that use low sulfur coal that make up to 350.2 megawatts of electricity. Unit 5 is the oldest unit in operation at the plant and had been operating since 1949. In 2003 the Pulliam plant has introduced the P31 turbine which is the only unit to combust and generate 83 megawatts of energy from natural gas.

Environmental impact
Throughout the early 20th century and into the 21 century the Pulliam power plant had negatively affected the environment in both Green Bay and the Fox River due to emissions of mercury, calcium oxide in both the water and air of the area.

In 2009 an activated carbon system was installed on Unit 8 to capture mercury before it would be released into the environment. Also in 2009 equipment was added to reduce Nitrogen oxide on units 5,6,7, and 8 were added to reduce acid rain, ozone and fine particulate emissions.
