Corey Hessen, CEO of Homer City Redevelopment, headlined a major energy conference in Pittsburgh yesterday.
Hessen gave the keynote address at the second annual PA Data Center and Energy Innovation Summit, hosted by the Pittsburgh Technology Council. His remarks focused on the ongoing transformation of the former Homer City Generating Station, which is being redeveloped into what’s expected to become the largest natural gas-powered energy facility currently under construction in the United States.
Hessen said that Pennsylvania has always been a power-generating state, and this new plant is going to be a wonderful thing for the history of the county.
When finished, the plant will use seven advanced natural gas turbines to help meet growing energy demand, including data centers and artificial intelligence.
Hessen offered an update to the project, saying that construction is going very well.
This marked the second year for the conference.
