Handsome Lake Generating Station

Natural gas serves as a bridge to a clean energy future, giving off less than half of the carbon emissions of coal when burned

Handsome Lake Generating Station is owned and operated by Constellation. Handsome Lake is a five-unit, 268-megawatt (MW) natural gas-fueled electric generation facility located in Rockland Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania. The units at Handsome Lake are fueled by natural gas and are used as needed for peak energy demand periods.

Constellation takes a safety-first approach in our culture and business practices. All Constellation generation facilities employ sophisticated emergency response plans to protect public health and safety. Plans are reviewed and approved by state governments and federal regulatory agencies. Emergency planning includes coordination with local and municipal officials, as well as thousands of volunteers and first responders.

To protect the safety and health of our employees, contractors, customers, and communities, we've implemented a number of initiatives to promote safe behaviors both on and off the job. These include a safety behavior observation program and focused initiatives on areas of high risk. We also offer safety training, which is integrated with leadership development programs for supervisors and managers, as well as new employee orientation. Finally, a safety peer group identifies successful pilot programs or new practices that can then be adopted by the entire organization.

Handsome Lake pays local real estate taxes every year to support county and township government, area schools, libraries, park districts, and other public services.
