Just so you know,
The customer will pay for the “cleaner” plant.
Once the combined cycle plant is operational, Gulf will have substantial burden to bring about a rate case before the state. Recent projects, depending on the number of units, have reached the 1 to 1.5 billion dollar mark. Expect at least a 15% increase in your bill.

Everyone here needs to realize when ALL of these decisions that were made by Gulf Power in the past were done by Southern Company… Gulf Powers owners prior to being sold to Nextera Energy. Nextera will lower your bills, and provide very reliable forms of power generation. Nextera is the future of clean energy for our state, and nation.

Where can I find the EXACT route of the pipeline? I want to know if my property is going to be effected or lucky enough that the pipeline will be rerouted around my neighborhood.

Why have I not received a letter from Gulf Power informing me of this pipeline? The first time I learned of this was when I received a letter of eminent domain from an attorney. I live in Molino and my property value will most definitely be effected. I want to know when will Gulf Power notify me?

I for one am one of the many that will be effected by this. Concerns are loss value, utilizing a huge footprint of my property, that yes They say they will give dollars for. I do have safety concerns, health concerns, Long term benefit possibilities? I understand that no financial burden comes upon the citizens while the project is being developed and worked, but the communities will end up paying. Will the land owners get a ” Break” for being a part of this Transmission use? IE: monthly rebate or money for land use? The more I think about this, the more questions arise.

They are going around asking for right away and offering a little of money but the contract they give says they will pay 10$. Don’t sign unless you just want to lose the rights to the land for 10$

Whatever you might think about Gulf Power, pay attention to this story. THIS is why coal is a dying industry:

“The conversion to natural gas would significantly lower carbon emissions and help lower cost”

Not because of anything any liberals are doing. It’s cheaper and cleaner, bottom line. Those coal mining jobs aren’t coming back, no matter what anyone tells you. Neither are those high-paying union assembly line jobs that robots are now doing.

The problem lies in thinking it was supposed to scrub carbon dioxide. The name “flue gas desulfurization project” should suggest the real goal.

From:
https://www.upi.com/Gulf-Power-cleans-up-coal-fired-plant/35001176233566/

“…process is expected to remove about 95 percent of the sulfur dioxides and chlorides, 70 percent of the particulates and 80 percent of the mercury oxides from the emissions.”

Understand that using natural gas should remove all of those and reduce carbon dioxide emissions around 50%.

(Nuclear would remove all those as well as reduce mining deaths.)
