The Panda Patriot Power Plant is a natural gas-fired power station that is located in Clinton Township, Lycoming County, Pennsylvania, United States (near Williamsport).
Owned solely by Panda Energy International of Dallas, Texas, the plant was built due to the retirement of roughly a dozen coal-fired power stations in Pennsylvania, New York and Maryland. After three years of planning and approval by local, state and federal agencies, construction on the station began in 2013. It took approximately thirty months to complete the total project.
