Earlier this year, Capital Power Corporation, based in Edmonton (Alberta), Canada, a power producer with approximately 10 gigawatts (GW) of power generation at 30 facilities across North America, closed on buying two gas-fired power plants from LS Power, including the Panda Hummel Marcellus-fired power plant in Snyder County, PA (see Canada’s Capital Power Buying 2 PJM Gas-Fired Plants in PA, OH).
