Byron Generating Station Unit 1 automatically shut down at 11am Tuesday after an 'ice intrusion' interrupted power on one of the unit’s transformers. A plant spokesperson said the unit is designed to shut down in such situations, and the equipment acted properly.
Repairs will be done to the unit, although it is not clear how long that will take.
Unit 2 continues to operate at full power.
