The first phase of the new St. Joseph Energy Center is online.
After years of planning and 2.5 years of construction, the new high-tech, clean energy facility is operational.
ABC 57 reports that, when the second phase is completed, the St. Joseph Energy Center will power more than one million houses and contribute tens of millions of dollars in tax revenue to the county over the next 30 years.
The construction process employed more than 700 workers and boosted the economy of New Carlisle.
