OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — Owners of a natural gas-fired power plant in Grays Harbor County are one step closer to expanding production.
A state panel recommended to Gov. Chris Gregoire last week that Chicago-based Invenergy LLC be allowed to go forward with the $400 million project. The governor has 60 days to make a decision.
Invenergy wants to add two combustion-turbine generators and a single steam generator to double production at its power plant in Satsop. The expansion could generate enough electricity to power about 1 million homes.
