The unit, expected to be up and running around 2011, will allow the company to rely less on natural gas as a fuel for its generating plants. It is expected to save customers $4 billion on their electricity bills over a 30-year period. Natural gas prices have risen dramatically over the past three years, and many experts predict that prices are unlikely to return to the low levels of the 1990s. Entergy Louisiana is a subsidiary of Entergy Corp., which is headquartered in New Orleans.
