​​​​EL PASO – ​​El Paso Electric has completed its $380 million Montana Power Station, which will provide electricity for more than 160,000 homes.

The plant’s four natural-gas powered generating units have been phased in since March 2015. The last unit began supplying power Thursday.

The new units are 20 percent to 37 percent more efficient than older conventional steam units, according to EP Electric officials.
