16 June 2008 -- PPL recently asked the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for permission to expand the Holtwood hydroelectric plant in Pennsylvania, in a move that would add 125 MW of generating capacity.

The Holtwood hydroelectric plant began generating electricity in 1910. Currently, the 55-foot-high dam generates 109 MW of electricity.

Once permits are received, PPL says it plans to begin construction in 2009 with generation operations scheduled to start in 2012.

PPL will sell three hydroelectric dams in Maine
