Georgia System Operations

Remember The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia? Georgia System Operations Corp. (GSOC) works to make sure that remains only the title of a popular song. GSOC is the independent, not-for-profit system operator for electrical utilities in the state. The cooperative was established in 1997 under the restructuring of operations for Oglethorpe Power Corp. GSOC controls and monitors electric generation, transmission, and distribution assets owned by Oglethorpe and another related spinoff, Georgia Transmission Corp., as well as 38 electric member companies in the cooperative, which serve about half of Georgia's businesses and residents. GSOC is owned by Georgia Transmission, Oglethorpe, and the 38 member companies.
