<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
December 17, 2003, OGE Energy Corp. announced that the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (&#147;FERC&#148;) ordered a hearing regarding the acquisition of the NRG
McClain power plant by OGE Energy&#146;s subsidiary, Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company
(&#147;OG&amp;E&#148;). The FERC action does not reject OG&amp;E&#146;s purchase of the
McClain facility, but demonstrates that the Commission has some issues that will need to
be addressed. Attached as Exhibit 99.01 is the press release for this announcement. </FONT></P>

FERC Delay of <BR>McClain Power Plant Acquisition </FONT></H1>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Project" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>OKLAHOMA CITY &#150; OGE Energy Corp.
(NYSE: OGE) said today that it is disappointed by the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission&#146;s action to order Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company&#146;s acquisition of
the NRG McClain power plant to hearing. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Project" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&#147;We are disappointed,&#148; said
Steven E. Moore, OGE Energy&#146;s Chairman, President and CEO. &#147;We have yet to see
an order from FERC outlining its concerns, but we are eager to begin the process of
addressing the issues that the Commission has.&#148; </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Project" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>Moore added that the FERC action does
not reject OG&amp;E&#146;s purchase of the McClain facility, but demonstrates that the
Commission has some issues that will need to be addressed. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Project" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>The $159.9 million purchase from NRG
McClain LLC, an indirect subsidiary of NRG Energy Inc., would add 400 megawatts of
high-efficiency generating capacity to OG&amp;E&#146;s fleet of power plants. The new
plant, and the savings it makes possible for OG&amp;E&#146;s customers, are major
components of OG&amp;E&#146;s Customer Savings and Reliability Plan, filed Oct. 31 with
the Oklahoma Corporation Commission. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Project" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&#147;This acquisition holds great
promise for our customers in the form of significant cost savings and improved
reliability,&#148; Moore said. &#147;Today&#146;s decision by FERC in no way concludes our
efforts to pursue this acquisition and the savings that it will deliver to our
customers.&#148; </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Project" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>As part of a 2002 Oklahoma rate
settlement agreement, OG&amp;E guaranteed $75 million in customer savings over a
three-year period after the acquisition of new generating capacity. Alternatively, the
settlement called for the utility to reduce its rates by approximately $2 million per
month if it did not acquire new generation by Jan. 1, 2004. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Project" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&#147;We will promptly begin looking
at all possible alternatives to avoid the $2 million monthly reduction,&#148; Moore said.
&#147;We have made every effort to complete this acquisition. But now, because of
today&#146;s FERC delay, we may be unable to do so by year&#146;s end.&#148; </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Project" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>The McClain plant acquisition,
announced Aug. 19, has received regulatory and procedural approvals from the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, and antitrust clearance under the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Act. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Project" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>The Oklahoma Municipal Power
Authority (OMPA) retains its 23 percent ownership interest in the 520-megawatt McClain
plant, which began electric production in June 2001 using two combined-cycle General
Electric generating turbines fueled by natural gas. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Project" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>The acquisition would enable OG&amp;E
to meet increasing customer demand for electric power and effectively eliminate the need
for OG&amp;E to purchase power from other generators. Customer savings would begin
immediately due to the plant&#146;s highly efficient use of fuel. Further savings </FONT></P>
