Cleco says its $1 billion power plant just north of Alexandria should enter commercial service in early 2010, nearly four years after work first started. The utility company says the Rodemacher 3 plant remains on budget, according to Reuters. The plant uses petroleum coke, a byproduct of oil refining, as fuel. Construction started on the facility in April 2006.
