WV’s First Gas-Powered Elec Plant Begins Construction This Summer

Energy Solutions Consortium (ESC), based in Buffalo, NY, will begin construction on West Virginia's very first Marcellus gas-fired electric generating plant sometime "this summer." The exact date has not yet been set, but should be announced soon. However, in a bit of a surprise (for us), the state's first natgas-fired plant to get built will not be (as we thought) in Brooke County. Instead, it will be in Harrison County.
