Florida's Energy Landscape

Though some are hidden from view, many of Florida’s power plants are visible and integrated into its natural landscapes. Their presence represents the dichotomy of the comfort they bring to our homes versus the harm they cause to our lands. The more Geo thought about it and noticed their sublime beauty, he decided to photograph energy facilities throughout Florida. Over the course of 10 days and 3000 miles, he visited 30 plants.

Because of heightened security throughout the nation, Geo faced some unpleasant scenarios, with vehicle searches, identity checks and one instance of having a gun pulled on him. But mostly, he photographed in peace.

In 2007, Florida was the second largest energy producer in the nation.
