Unit 1 went into operation in May 1984 and Unit 2 in May 1991.The station shares a 483-acre (195 ha) site adjacent to the Patapsco River with the Herbert A. Wagner Generating Station. The Brandon Shores plant dominates the site with its 700-foot (210 m) exhaust and 400-foot (120 m) flue-gas desulfurization (FGD) system stacks. In April 2023, Talen notified their grid operator, PJM, that they intended to close the station.
