The AES Corporation Presents at 8th Annual LatAm Ceo Conference, May-15-2013 . Venue: New York, New York, United States.

The AES Corporation disclosed that it plans to close the O.H. Hutchings Generating Station in Miamisburg along the Great Miami River at the end of the month. The six coal-fired units at Hutchings provide about 360 megawatts of electricity and the plant has employed 50 in recent years, but workers will not lose their jobs because they will transfer to other positions. Some are going to other power plants and others are staying in the Dayton area.
