1925 - Mississippi Power was established at midnight on January 1, 1925, when it took over the assets of the Gulfport and Mississippi Coast Traction Company, which operated a small generating plant in Gulfport and an electric railway from Pass Christian to Biloxi. Initially, the company offered limited electric service to about 5,500 customers along the Coast. 1929 - The company extends from Tennessee to the Coast with 40,000 customers. During the early years of the company, electricity was transmitted to eastern Mississippi from hydroelectric facilities in Alabama.
Mississippi Power is engaged in finding practical renewable generation options for our region. We are partnering with Southern Company and other groups to research and evaluate the development of those sources in our area that show promise for producing cost-effective and reliable energy. We are also working with customers to identify renewable options and technologies for their homes and businesses. As Mississippi's largest partner in renewable energy, we're proud to support the state's economy and solar growth.
We are recognizing a dozen teachers across southern Mississippi with $19,000 in Environmental Education Grants. These funds will provide teachers and students with equipment and supplies for environmental science lessons.
