Dynegy Inc. has the most proposed coal-fired power plants of any company in the nation. And it’s just been dealt a heavy blow.

A Superior Court judge in Georgia has ruled to kill the construction of Dynegy's proposed 1,200-megawatt, $2 billion coal plant on the banks of the Chattahoochee River.

Longleaf was its name. And it was slated to be Georgia’s first new coal-fired power plant in 20 years.

But for now, it's dead, on account of Dynegy’s failure to do anything to limit the facility's CO2 emissions.

Historic.
