City of Lakeland

Today, as Florida’s third-largest public power utility, Lakeland Electric provides electricity to more than 100,000 customers. Power is generated at Lakeland Electric’s two main power plants, the 941-megawatt McIntosh Power Plant and the 176-megawatt Larsen Power Plant. The utility also operates a group of energy-efficient generating units capable of providing up to 50-megawatts of additional electricity. The Lakeland Electric implemented MAXIMO in 2001. The McIntosh plant implemented an advanced weekly schedule program which worked with MAXIMO. Their intent was to increase worker efficiency and enhance backlog reduction techniques.
