It operates two combustion turbines, two heat recovery steam generators and one steam turbine. The plant has a baseload capacity of 750 megawatts. The plant can run off either natural gas or ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel oil.

The current plant is on the site of the Edison Illuminating Company's Charles L. Edgar Station, built in 1923.[1]
