LCG, November 6, 2025--X-energy Reactor Company, LLC, (X-energy) and the U.S. Office of Nuclear Energy today announced the start of confirmatory irradiation testing at Idaho National Laboratory (INL) to qualify X-energy’s proprietary TRISO-X fuel pebbles for commercial use in the Xe-100 Small Modular Reactor (SMR). (TRISO stands for TRi-structural ISOtropic). This is the first time that TRISO-X fuel pebbles will undergo irradiation testing in a U.S. lab, which is a critical step in meeting requirements set forth by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for the commercial deployment of advanced reactors that will use the fuel.

LCG, October 28, 2025--NextEra Energy and Google yesterday announced two agreements that will help meet growing electricity demand from artificial intelligence (AI) with clean, reliable, 24/7 nuclear power and strengthen the nation's nuclear leadership. First, Google signed a new, 25-year agreement for power generated at the Duane Arnold Energy Center, Iowa's only nuclear power facility. The 601-MW boiling water reactor unit was shut down in 2020 and is expected to commence operations by the first quarter of 2029, pending regulatory approvals to restart the plant.

NextEra Energy Transmission Submits Offshore Wind Transmission Proposals to Serve New Jersey
LCG, November 5, 2021--NextEra Energy Transmission Mid-Atlantic Holdings, LLC, a subsidiary of NextEra Energy, Inc., yesterday announced that it has submitted multiple proposals, collectively called the New Jersey Seawind Connector, into the PJM State Agreement Approach Proposal Window.
NextEra Energy Transmission stated that the proposals are all cost-effective, help New Jersey meet its future energy needs, and designed to minimize environmental and marine impacts.
NextEra Energy Transmission’s president said, “For more than 20 years, NextEra Energy companies have been supporting New Jersey's energy needs. As the largest generator of renewable energy from the wind and the sun in the world, we support and applaud New Jersey's clean energy goals. We believe no one in the industry can match our experience and unique skillset and we look forward to participating in this project.”
According NextEra, the proposals submitted considered a number of different injection locations and designed routes to minimize marine and environmental impacts. The proposals are designed to provide reliable and cost-effective delivery of offshore wind energy to New Jersey electric customers at significant savings compared to current transmission plans.
The New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (BPU) will analyze a number of factors to evaluate the proposals and may select one or more proposals to move forward with development and construction in the second half of 2022.
