Hundreds of local schoolchildren have toured the Potomac River Generating Station and have seen first-hand how electricity is generated.

Open Houses and Group Tours

Turning on the lights in your home is as easy as flipping a switch — but producing the electricity that powers those lights is considerably more complex.

From acquiring fuel to generating power, see first-hand how our plant operates by attending one of our Open House events or scheduling a group tour.

To schedule a group tour, please e-mail Mirant Community Outreach»

Due to limited space, we can only accommodate a certain number of guests per event, so registration is required. Registrants will be accepted on a first-come first-served basis.
