Indiana Powers the Future with More Than 3,800 Megawatts of New Generation

---

Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas). Power producers in Indiana, “The Crossroads of America” state, are considering in excess of 3,800 megawatts, representing a 13.75% increase of new and cleaner power generation projects to meet growing needs of the state, and at the same time replace some of the older, less efficient units that will need to be retired. Currently, there are more than 28,000 megawatts of operational generation capacity in Indiana. Companies have recently closed or retired about 1,200 megawatts, with more units scheduled for retirement to follow through 2010.
