A new utility wants to harness the sun to power Georgia.  

Robert Green, founder of Georgia Solar Utilities hopes the Public Service Commission will approve a 90-megawatt solar power plant in Putnam County over the expected opposition of Georgia Power.  

"One megawatt will service and take care of a Super-Target shopping mall," Green tells WSB.  

He lists the advantage of solar.  

"We don't have fuel costs.  We don't have to maintain big coal-fired generating plants and we don't have any environmental hangovers to deal with," he points out.  

Georgia Power has signed off on a separate 50-megawatt solar plant in Social Circle, which could be online in 2015.
