Mid-Georgia Cogen

Mid-Georgia Cogen is a 308 MW electric combined cycle gas turbine power plant located in Kathleen, Georgia.

The plant is primarily used for peaking power.[1] It lies in the southern part of the Warner Robins metropolitan area.

History

The plant was developed by New Jersey headquartered GPU International as a merchant facility in the late 1990s. Prior to operation, a 50% stake was sold to Birmingham, Alabama based energy company Sonat.[2] The plant became operational on June 1, 1998.[3] In 1999, the plant won Power Engineering magazine's Project of the Year award.[4]

Through a series of mergers and sales, the plant is currently owned by Atlantic Power Corporation and NorthernStar Generation.[1]

Technical details

The plant supplies process steam for use in food manufacturing. Electrical generation is sold to Georgia Power Company. The plant uses two Siemens/Westinghouse gas turbines and paired Nooter-Erickson heat recovery steam generators with a steam turbine to generate steam and electricity. The gas turbines may be fueled by natural gas or fuel oil.[1]
