Homer City Energy Campus
A developer campus by Homer City Redevelopment in Homer City, PA, on the PJM grid. Status: under construction.
Grid and gas impact
At full buildout this campus is announced at 4,500 MW. After phasing to 2030 and weighting by build stage, the index expects about 864 MW running by 2030. That is about 0.5% of the PJM 2025 summer peak (160,000 MW).
At that level it would use about 5,676 GWh of electricity a year, roughly what 526,000 US homes use (EIA average of about 10,800 kWh per home), and add about 142.6 MMcf/d of natural gas burn on an average day, counting both on-site generation and the region's gas-fired power plants.
Its rating is driven by gas: most or all of its power comes from on-site or dedicated gas generation, so the strain falls on pipelines and local gas supply rather than the transmission grid. Rated 4 of 4 bolts. Solid bolts mean the campus is operating or under construction.
Research note. 4.5 GW gas-fired plant on a former coal site.
