Maple Creek Energy is a proposed 1,300-megawatt (MW) combined-cycle gas turbine electric generating project proposed for completion in two phases (CCGT) in Sullivan County, Indiana.
Each phase of the project, Maple Creek Energy and Maple Creek Energy II will utilize low-carbon, American natural gas and recovered steam in a combined-cycle configuration to deliver flexible, cleaner energy to the region’s power system, making it one of the most efficient power-generation facilities in the U.S.
The facility footprint will sit on fewer than 50 acres, set back 1,250 feet from State Route 63 on a 170-acre parcel of land. Natural gas and electrical interconnections are located nearby, making the location ideal for a new electric supply benefitting the people of Indiana and the MISO power region.
In total, Maple Creek Energy will be a total investment of over $2 billion, offering significant community benefits including jobs, tax revenue, local infrastructure support, and more. The permitting processes for both phases of Maple Creek Energy are under way, with commercial operations anticipated for phase one of the project as soon as 2029. The facility will produce electricity using advanced technology and smart American energy for Indiana at a time when new power supplies are needed.
The Project is in development by Advanced Power, a leading developer of modern, low-carbon and renewable power-generating facilities with U.S. offices in Boston and Houston. Advanced Power has a proven track record of developing state-of-the-art electric generation projects in the U.S. and worldwide.
