Power plants run on natural gas coming to Marcellus Shale drilling country

The Times Leader reports on a Virginia company's plans to build two natural gas-powered generating stations in northeastern PA.

Natural gas would be delivered to the plants in transmission lines, which would likely be built by the companies producing the gas that powers the plants, and electricity would be delivered to the multistate PJM Interconnection transmission grid via existing high voltage transmission lines adjacent to the two planned plant sites.

Power produced at the plants would be delivered via local utilities first, then to utilities further away.

The company hopes to break ground on the Bradford County plant, dubbed the Moxie Liberty Generation Plant, in late 2012 and on the Lycoming County plant, dubbed the Moxie Patriot Generation Plant, in early 2013.
