Plant Vogtle COD Celebration

With the Vogtle expansion project complete, the co-owners, including MEAG Power, hosted a celebration to mark the historic achievement.

More than 500 people attended the main celebratory event at the plant Vogtle site, in the shadows of the cooling towers. Speakers included Gov. Brian Kemp, PSC Commissioners and Georgia Power CEO Kim Greene among others.

Gov. Kemp noted that “This is history being made right before our very eyes. Vogtle 3 and 4 doesn’t just represent an incredible economic asset for our state and a milestone for our entire country, they also stand as physical examples of something that I remind myself of every day: Tough times don’t last, tough people do.”
