Posted November 14, 2025 in News


Entergy Mississippi is investing $1.2 billion to build the Vicksburg Advanced Power Station, a state-of-the-art 754-megawatt facility that will replace aging plants with cleaner, more efficient generation.  

The project will create over 560 construction jobs, boost local tax revenue, and support long-term economic growth by providing reliable, affordable energy for expanding industries like Amazon. As part of the Superpower Mississippi initiative—the largest grid upgrade in company history—this investment strengthens the region’s energy infrastructure, helping attract new business, jobs, and investment to the state.
