    • The co-op’s power supply is provided by Seminole Electric Cooperative, a generation and transmission co-op owned by Clay Electric and eight other electric co-ops.
      Seminole’s primary resources include the Seminole Generating Station (SGS) and the Seminole Combined Cycle Facility (SCCF) in northeast Florida, the Richard J. Midulla Generating Station (MGS) in south central Florida, and Seminole’s first “Cooperative Solar” facility, located adjacent to MGS.
      SGS consists of one approximately 736-megawatt coal-fired generating unit. Located just north of Palatka, SGS uses modern technology for environmental protection, including more than $530 million invested in environmental control equipment. SCCF is the new natural gas plant directly adjacent to the existing Seminole Generating Station site in Putnam County, Florida, and has a generating capacity of 1,134 megawatts.
      MGS, located in Hardee County, is an 835-megawatt facility that uses natural gas as its primary fuel. The station’s 500-megawatt combined-cycle unit began commercial operation in 2002, with five 62-megawatts of fast-start peakers added in 2006.
      Located next to MGS, Cooperative Solar is a 2.2-megawatt solar array comprising more than 8,000 solar photovoltaic (PV) panels. In addition to Cooperative Solar, Seminole has contracted with Florida Renewable Partners, LLC to build four new photovoltaic solar sites which are expected to generate 298 megawatts, or 74.5 megawatts per facility, enough to power approximately 60,000 homes. These new solar facilities are expected to be commercially operational in 2024.
