---

Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--South Carolina Electric & Gas Company (SCE&G), a subsidiary of SCANA Corporation (NYSE:SCG) (Columbia, South Carolina), has completed construction of the $35 million, 50-megawatt (MW) expansion project at the Hagood Power Station in Charleston, South Carolina.

Construction on the project began in late 2008 and was completed in the fall of 2009. SCE&G commenced full commercial operation of the project earlier this year. The project consisted of installing two 25-MW, natural gas-fired GE Energy LMS100 combustion turbine generators to the existing facility. The new units will operate in a simple-cycle peaking capacity, helping supply power when energy demands are at their highest, which is during both the summer and winter months.

AME Incorporated (Fort Mill, South Carolina) provided the turnkey engineering, procurement, and construction services for the project.
