Oglethorpe Power Announces Selection of Kiewit Subsidiary as EPC Partner for New 1,425-MW Combined-cycle Facility in Georgia
LCG, January 13, 2026--Oglethorpe Power today announced it has selected Kiewit Corporation through its subsidiary, The Industrial Company (TIC), as the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) partner for its new combined-cycle (CC), natural gas-fired power plant in Monroe County, Georgia. The new, 1,425-MW facility represents a capital investment of more than $3 billion. Commercial operation of the new generation capacity is planned to commence in 2029.
As one of the nation’s largest power supply cooperatives, Oglethorpe Power owns and operates a diverse portfolio of resources to supply 38 consumer-owned, not-for-profit Electric Membership Cooperatives (EMCs) that provide retail electricity to approximately 4.7 million Georgians. Oglethorpe Power states that it is developing the new facility to supply reliable power to long-term, system-wide load growth across its cooperative membership, including homes, businesses and existing industries—not to serve any single customer or standalone project.
Oglethorpe Power's President & CEO stated, "We are proud to partner with Kiewit through its subsidiary TIC for this critical energy project that will support our mission to deliver safe, reliable and affordable energy to our Members and the millions of Georgians they serve. Its proven success in delivering complex power projects safely, on schedule and within budget, combined with a commitment to safety and community, makes the company an ideal partner for this facility and aligns perfectly with our cooperative principles and dedication to Monroe County."
The Senior Vice President of TIC said, "We’re pleased to partner with Oglethorpe Power on this new combined-cycle natural gas power plant that will help meet growing energy demand across Georgia. With our proven experience in complex power generation projects and our focus on safety, quality and collaboration, we’re committed to delivering a facility that will provide reliable power for years to come."
The TIC team is expected to mobilize this Spring. The new facility will include two CC blocks and be installed on land already owned by Oglethorpe Power. The site is near the existing Smarr Energy Facility, which is a two unit, natural gas-fired, simple-cycle facility operated by Oglethorpe Power.
Last May, Oglethorpe Power announced the selection of GE Vernova’s advanced 7HA.03 gas turbines for the new project. The project design includes air-cooled condensers instead of traditional cooling towers, which will significantly reduce water consumption compared to most combined-cycle facilities. Onsite work began in September of last year.
