PHOENIX-Construction has begun on a $1-billion power generation plant west of Phoenix that will supply enough energy for one million people, according to a company official.

Pinnacle West Energy, a subsidiary of Pinnacle West Capital Corp., has broken ground on Redhawk Power Plant, which will generate 2,120-megawatts when completed. The plant is located near the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station, owned by Pinnacle West, which is about 55 miles west of Phoenix.

“This is a major accomplishment for us, as well as for customers throughout Arizona and the West,” says Bill Stewart, president of Pinnacle West Energy. “This project, along with others we have announced, will allow us to help meet increasing demands for power in Arizona and markets across the Southwest and, at the same time, promote a competitive market that will ultimately benefit customers.”
