Security Officers - Casual - Holyrood Thermal Generating Station
Site Description:
Fifty years ago, on December 15, 1970, the Honourable Joseph R. Smallwood, then Premier of Newfoundland and Labrador, officially opened the generating plant in Holyrood with 2 units online at 300MW.
The Holyrood Thermal Generating Station remains a critical part of our Island power supply today.
To run reliably, the Holyrood Plant is staffed by many critical specialists including operators, electricians, welders, instrument technicians, chemists, environmental staff, warehouse workers, clerks, engineers and many other trades and professions.
Much of the work performed at Holyrood is unique – it’s the only thermal generating plant of its size in the province and therefore teams have developed unique and important skills and expertise.
While the electricity system in Newfoundland & Labrador is once again going through significant change and development the Holyrood Thermal Generating Plant will always remain a significant piece of the history of the provincial electricity system
