SC PSC Approves Duke/Santee Cooper 2.2 GW Gas-Fired Power Plant
Good news! The Public Service Commission (PSC) of South Carolina approved a joint application by Dominion Energy and Santee Cooper to build Canadys Station, a natural gas combined-cycle facility in Colleton County. The plant will generate approximately 2,200 megawatts (2.2 GW) — enough to power over one million homes — addressing the state's growing energy demand. It will be built on the site of a former Dominion Energy coal plant, roughly 40 miles northwest of Charleston (the "Lowcountry" region), eliminating the need for new land clearing.To view this content, log into your member account.
