Today, we broke ground on our new state-of-the art 640-megawatt natural gas combined-cycle generating unit at our Mill Creek Generating Station. Mill Creek 5 will be our most efficient and advanced generating unit, producing electricity through both a gas turbine and a steam turbine, which utilizes steam generated from the exhaust heat in the gas combustion process. Construction is now underway on Mill Creek 5 and will begin powering customer’s homes and businesses in 2027.
