Considering how old and obsolete these plants are, it's a three unit facility, a $500 million upgrade is just peanuts. They didn't go big enough to tell you the truth.
***This just happened overnight. These guys just spend a lot of money upgrading the capacity of the plants and components. A few years back they were continually down powering in the summer because the river water going into the plants was too hot. They spent a lot of money to counteract the hot summer time southern water going into the plants. They are lost a tremendous amount of electricity going into the plant. My best guess its the hot water has come back or overwhelmed the new cooling towers.
