Georgia Power to Build New Units to Meet Georgia's Future Electricity Needs
Source: PRNewswire

ATLANTA, Sept. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Georgia Power is proposing to build two new natural gas units at its Plant Wansley site in order to meet the electricity needs of customers in Georgia. Additionally, the company is purchasing power under a long-term contract from an independent power producer.
Georgia Power filed a request with the Georgia Public Service Commission on Wednesday to certify contracts for approximately 1,450 megawatts of capacity for use during the period of 2002 -- 2009.

The power will come from two projects -- a Georgia Power combined cycle project at Plant Wansley near Roopville, Ga. and a combustion turbine peaking plant in Thomaston, Ga. owned by West Georgia Generating Company (a subsidiary of Sonat Energy Services Company).
