Engineers chose to build Unit 2 at Cross first, with the unit coming online in 1983. Cross Unit 1, authorized by the Santee Cooper Board of Directors in 1990, came online in May 1995, ahead of schedule and under budget. While the newer unit is essentially a companion unit to the first unit, Cross 1 generates 20 more megawatts of power. Cross Unit 3 entered commercial operation in 2007, with Unit 4 projected to go online in 2009.
