The North Powerhouse at the Detroit Metropolitan Airport provides chilled (cooling) water and steam for domestic hot water, heating ventilation air conditioning (HVAC). The North Powerhouse provides utilities, high pressure steam (150 psi) and chilled water, to support the North Terminal, Blue Parking Deck (Blue Deck) and the Smith Building’s HVAC services. These utilities are produced in a plant that was designed to support a connective load that has evolved with the development of the new North Terminal.
