The other owners of Roseton are Niagara Mohawk Power Corp. with 25 percent and Consolidated Edison co. of new York with 40 percent.Dynegy said the combination of fuels used in the plants will give it the opportunity to bring into play a full range of marketing, trading and arbitrage capabilities.Ronald P.
