PowerSouth Energy Cooperative, based in Andalusia, Alabama, operates as a generation and transmission utility that serves wholesale power needs for 20 distribution members—16 electric cooperatives and four municipal electric systems—in Alabama and northwest Florida. For 67 years it has supplied energy to these members, whose networks deliver electricity to more than 1 million consumers across 39 Alabama counties and 10 Florida counties. The cooperative structure positions PowerSouth as a connector between generation resources and local distribution utilities, coordinating regional reliability and supply. In June 2026, PowerSouth announced a new partnership with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Group, selecting Mitsubishi Power Americas to provide a second advanced gas turbine for the LEC, as the plant expands to deliver additional power to the region. The development illustrates ongoing efforts to expand regional capacity to meet demand.
