Background

The Magnolia Power Project will include a GE 7HA.03 gas turbine, a GE STF-A650 steam turbine and a triple pressure with reheat Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG). The plant will have the eventual ability to blend up to 50% hydrogen and will provide electricity directly to five rural utility cooperatives across the state starting in May 2025.[5] The construction began in February 2023.[6]
