This is a list of electricity-generating power stations in the U.S. state of Georgia, sorted by type and name. In 2023, Georgia had a total summer capacity of 37,786 MW through all of its power plants, and a net generation of 129,221 GWh. In 2024, the electrical energy generation mix was 41.2% natural gas, 34% nuclear, 12.7% coal, 6.6% solar, 3.7% biomass, 1.6% hydroelectric, 0.2% petroleum, and less than 0.1% other. Distributed small-scale solar, including customer-owned photovoltaic panels, delivered an additional net 568 GWh to the state's electricity grid in 2024. This compares to 8,780 GWh generated by Georgia's utility-scale solar facilities.
Two new nuclear reactors have been constructed at the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant. They are the nation's first AP1000 reactors and were connected to the grid in March 2024. The state has no active uranium or fossil-fuel mining operations and limited proven reserves of coal.

Georgia Power Hydro incorporates 72 hydroelectric generating units to produce a generation capacity of 844,720 kilowatts (kW). Georgia Power Hydro facilities also provide more than of water bodies and more than of shoreline for habitat and recreational use.
Electricity is generated in Alabama.<br> Carters, Russell, and Wallace generate additional electricity as reversible pumped storage.
Georgia had no utility-scale wind generating facilities in 2019. It has much potential for offshore development and limited onshore potential.
