Our Electric Generation Strategy
JEA’s generation capacity is approximately 3,000 megawatts (MW). Our 2024 generation fleet contains a diverse resource mix that includes 61% natural gas; with the remaining generation coming from coal and petroleum. We also supply our energy mix with 19% purchased power, 9% nuclear power and 4% renewables from solar and other sources. In all, about 12.8 million MWh energy was produced for our customers in FY23.
