NOVEC Energy Production Halifax County Biomass, a South Boston Energy company, has renewed the operation and maintenance agreement (O&M agreement) with PIC Group for the Halifax County 49.9-megawatt (MW) biomass power station through 2026. Under the terms of the O&M agreement, PIC Group will be fully responsible for day-to-day operation and maintenance services of the biomass power station, located in Halifax County, Virginia that uses wood waste as a feedstock to provide enough renewable energy to power the equivalent of 16,000 households.

“PIC has done a great job managing the operations and maintenance of the 49.9 MW biomass power station over the past 5 1/2 years and given this, NOVEC recently renewed the contract for an additional 3 years,” Michael Davis, HCB fuel procurement and plant operations manager, said. “We are proud to be partnered with PIC Group.”

“At PIC Group, we strive to assure the high-level performance of each power plant we manage,” said Frank Avery, president and CEO at PIC Group. “The renewal of our service agreement with NOVEC Energy Production Halifax County Biomass is evidence of our ongoing success.”
