U.S. provider census record.
EIA-861 is the annual respondent spine. Detailed activities are absent for short-form respondents; a county territory means distribution equipment is present somewhere in that county, not exclusive or address-level service.

Form EIA-861 and EIA-861S provide the annual census frame of U.S. electric utilities, distribution utilities, and power marketers. County keys preserve the exact published State|County service-territory values for discovery; they are not an address, an exclusive franchise boundary, or proof that the organization serves a specific data center, has available capacity, or holds a current site contract.
Operating, construction, contracted, approved, framework, forecast, and manufacturing figures stay separate. Parent totals and included projects are marked so they are never counted twice.

Mixed portfolio: gas combined cycle / combustion turbines, batteries, solar plus batteries, and PPAs; not one fuel or generator
Status
PSC-certified portfolio
Timeline
Commercial-operation dates run from November 2027 through December 2030; certification orders issued in December 2025
Scope
Georgia Power retail and regional resource portfolio responding to large-load growth; it is not dedicated to one operator
The PSC reports 9,885 MW total certified capacity, including 8,500 MW approved in the 2025 IRP plus previously approved generation. It is not all newly built supply, a data-center allocation, or actual load.
June 2026 EIA schedule for 2026-07 through 2027-06. Generation and storage form one technology split; construction and earlier-stage status form a second overlapping split. They are not added across axes.
