Tucson Electric Power will likely need to build a new natural gas plant to serve the second big data center complex planned for Project Blue, a spokesman said this week. But if that does happen — and TEP says it hasn’t decided yet if it will serve that complex — the utility will build the new gas plant outside Pima County, said Joe Salkowski, TEP’s senior director for communications and public affairs.
