State utility regulators are reconsidering a previously rejected proposed power plant expansion project that pitted environmental justice concerns against metro Phoenix’s increasing electricity demands during Arizona’s summer heat.

On June 6, the commission is now reconsidering the plan and the Salt River Project is ready to drop a billion dollars on the project.
