Michigan Gas-Fired Plant Finally Begins Producing Electricity

Some 20 years ago Indeck Energy floated a plan to build an electric generating plant (powered by natural gas) in Niles, Michigan, not far from Chicago. In 2016 those plans got serious (see $1B Electric Plant Planned Near Chicago, M-U Connection?). Indeck finally held an official groundbreaking ceremony in September 2019 (see Delayed Michigan Gas-Fired Plant Finally Begins Construction). We're happy to report the Niles Energy Center is now online, generating electricity from natural gas.
