LG&E and KU, GE Vernova to build new combined-cycle capacity at Mill Creek

Mill Creek 5 (MC5) is expected to have an output of approximately 645 MW and will feature GE’s 7HA.03 gas turbine.

Kentucky regulators approve some coal retirements, defer others

The 600 MW approved for retirement represent Mill Creek coal-fired Units 1 and 2. The state’s public service commission found there was less of an immediate need to retire the larger Ghent Unit 2 and Brown Unit 3.

Combined Cycle

The FEED study will evaluate the feasibility and rough cost to pilot and deploy carbon-capture technology at the 640 MW NGCC.
