About Chestnut Run Energy

Chestnut Run Energy is a proposed 1,300-megawatt (MW) combined-cycle gas turbine (CCGT) electric-generating facility. The project will utilize low-carbon, American natural gas and recovered steam in a combined-cycle configuration to deliver flexible, cleaner energy to the region’s power system, making it one of the most efficient power generation facilities in the U.S.

The footprint of the facility requires approximately 30 acres of land in Carroll County, Ohio. Chestnut Run will tie into a nearby natural gas access point, and upon its final interconnection, the project will dispatch reliable power into the PJM electric grid. The electric interconnection point is approximately two miles north of the project site.

Chestnut Run will be an approximate $1.5 billion investment in Carroll County, offering significant community benefits including jobs, tax revenue, local infrastructure support, and more.

The Project is in development by Advanced Power, a leading developer of modern, low-carbon and renewable power-generating facilities with U.S. offices in Boston and Houston. Advanced Power has a proven track record of developing state-of-the-art electric generation projects in the U.S. and worldwide.

The electrical interconnection and permitting processes for Chestnut Run are underway. Construction activities may begin as early as Q4 2026 with commercial operations expected in 2030. The facility will deliver smart American energy to Carroll County.
