Estimated buildout target through 2030
2027. The current operator project page identifies construction underway and expected customer supply in 2027.
Construction is verified; the completion date remains an estimate. The timeline marker represents the published target year/month, not a confirmed opening day.
Published cost and electrical output
Project cost / investmentAbout USD 902 millionCost scopePublished project-specific capital/construction estimateCost source dateSource page undated; checked 2026-10-11Electrical generating capacity645 MW — Current operator page: 645 MW nameplateVerified project stageUnder construction
Project-specific research
LG&E/KU’s current Mill Creek 5 page states a 645 MW nameplate rating, $902 million cost, construction underway and estimated completion in 2027. Its 2024 groundbreaking release used 640 MW; the current page is used for the primary output rating. EIA’s separate 740 MW figure is retained as inventory context, not extra generating capacity.
Published project-specific cost for Mill Creek 5: USD 9.02e+08. Basis: Published project-specific capital/construction estimate. Published electric generating project rating for Mill Creek 5: 645 MW. Basis: Current operator page: 645 MW nameplate.
LG&E and KU broke ground on Mill Creek 5 on November 13, 2024 and describe a 640 MW natural-gas combined-cycle unit expected in 2027. EIA’s August 2026 construction record independently supports ongoing work. The operator’s 640 MW project rating and EIA generator nameplate rating use different reported figures; retain both labels. November 13, 2024 groundbreaking verifies physical construction.
Scope and evidence
Retained only with documented physical construction, commissioning or 2025–2026 opening and published project-specific costs and electrical output. Costs use the published scope and currency; no benchmark estimates or currency conversions. MW is power capacity, not annual electricity production. Expected annual energy, where given, is a forecast. The map point is a reported plant/project location and may be approximate. Matching inventory views and excluded expansion proposals are not additive capacity.

Earlier pin evidence / inventory snapshot
August 2026 inventory status
EIA August 2026 generator inventory, plant ID 1364: Mill Creek (KY), Jefferson County, KY. Included 1 new/recent generating units with a summed nameplate rating of 740 MW.
Generator 5: Natural Gas Fired Combined Cycle; 740 MW nameplate; summer rating 645 MW; (V) Under construction, more than 50 percent complete; planned operation 2027-6.
Date and location
EIA reports operation at month/year precision. The date is the last day of the earliest reported operation month/year, an estimated display boundary, not an exact opening day. Different units may have later dates. Future dates are operator-reported plans, not guarantees.
Coordinates are the EIA-reported plant point, not a verified entrance. New units at existing plants are included; the total excludes older units and battery/pumped storage. Capacity is a power rating, not annual energy output. Status was reported in August and may have changed since.
