LCG, September 12, 2025--Entergy announced yesterday that the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) approved Entergy Texas’ proposal to build two efficient natural gas-fired power plants to support the region’s rapid growth. The combined electric generating capacity of the two facilities, the Legend Power Station and the Lone Star Power Station, will add over 1,200 MW to the Southeast Texas power grid to support new customer demand, increase reliability and lower costs for all customers. Both facilities are scheduled to commence operations by mid-2028.

Proposed Coal Plant in Montana Deferred
LCG, December February 4, 2009--Southern Montana Electric (SME)announced Monday that it will defer the development of the 250-MW, Highwood Generating Station. The coal-fired project was planned to have been built near Great Falls.
SME now plans to install a 120-MW, gas-fired electric generating facility, together with over 6 MW of generating capacity driven by wind power. The initial, 80-MW phase of the gas-fired facility is scheduled to be operational toward the end of 2011, with an additional 40-MW of capacity coming on-line within the next 12 months.
SME's deferral of the coal-fired power plant resulted from a variety of factors, including: legal challenges, regulatory uncertainty with respect to carbon emissions and related global warming concerns, and hurdles associated with financing the project, which has grown to an estimated cost of $900 million.
