    ATLANTA, Sept. 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Georgia Power has filed nearly 2 gigawatts of new customer contracts with the Georgia Public Service Commission (PSC), marking a major milestone for the state's energy landscape. These agreements are the first to be reached under the Georgia PSC's newly approved rules and regulations, which are designed to provide Georgia Power with the flexibility to sustainably serve large-load customers while safeguarding residential and small business customers from additional costs.

    The company recently filed testimony with the Georgia PSC outlining how new contracts — driven largely by projected data center growth and other large-load customers — reinforce the need for additional generation resources to meet projected future demand. The filing is part of the ongoing All-Source Request for Proposals (RFP) certification proceeding and includes updates on projected customer demand, economic growth, and the company's load forecast.

    Georgia Power remains in active negotiations with multiple large-load customers representing several additional gigawatts of potential demand. Following the Georgia PSC's approval of updates to rules and regulations for the company earlier this year, potential large-load customers must now meet more stringent criteria — including providing financial commitments and demonstrating infrastructure readiness — to remain in the company's long-term development pipeline. These enhanced requirements help ensure that only the most credible and viable projects are included in Georgia Power's risk-adjusted load forecast. This growing pipeline of high-demand customers is a key factor enabling the company's three-year base rate freeze (excluding storm costs), helping to spread fixed costs across a broader customer base and protect residential and small business customers.

    Overall future customer demand remains strong with Georgia Power's risk-adjusted forecast projecting increased demand into the next decade, including 8,448 megawatts (MW) of projected growth between the winters of 2025/2026 and 2030/2031. Combined with continued progress on new customer contracts, this outlook further supports the company's request to certify approximately 9,900 MW of new capacity resources through the All-Source RFP, helping to ensure that Georgia's energy infrastructure keeps pace with economic development, and maintains reliable, resilient energy for customers.

    "As Georgia continues to grow, our planning and forecasting teams are working every day to review the latest economic trends and customer data in coordination with our regulators at the Georgia PSC," said Aaron Mitchell, senior vice president for Strategic Growth for Georgia Power. "These new contracts reflect not only the state's economic momentum, but also our commitment to protecting residential customers while responsibly planning for future energy needs."

    New Rules & Regulations Provide Flexibility, Protect Customers

    In January, the Georgia PSC approved new rules and regulations that enable Georgia Power to serve large-load customers through customized contracts — including terms such as upfront infrastructure payments, long-term commitments, and financial guarantees — while helping ensure that residential and small business customers are shielded from bearing the costs associated with these high-demand projects.
