LCG, June 29, 2026--Constellation announced on June 26 that it has filed license renewal applications with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to extend for 20 years the operations of Ginna Clean Energy Center and Nine Mile Point Unit 1 reactors in upstate New York to 2049. Constellation stated that it's decision to invest in these plants to extend their safe and reliable operations into mid-century demonstrates that New York State's renewal of its Zero Emissions Credit (ZEC) program is working as intended. Furthermore, Constellation stated that maintaining its nuclear fleet is estimated to save New Yorkers $50 billion and sustain reliable emissions-free generation resources to serve increasing electricity demands.

Northwest Power Picture Brightens
LCG, June 6, 2001The energy crunch affecting the Pacific Northwest is loosening, according to a report in this morning's Seattle Times, and none of the improvement can be laid to increased rainfall.New supply that is, additional sources of electricity beyond the region's highly developed hydroelectric infrastructure has brightened the picture, with better reliability forecast for summer and lower regional rate increases this coming fall, the paper said."Things are looking better than they were," Mark Crisson, director of Tacoma Public Utilities, told the Times. "In fact, I think there is going to be a huge overreaction to the situation in terms of new supply. If we had had anything close to a normal water year, we wouldn't even be having this conversation."Bonneville Power Administration says it has received transmission applications for between 25,000 and 30,000 megawatts of proposed power plants. Ed Mosey, a spokesman for Bonneville, said "There isn't a site in the Northwest with a source of gas and transmission capacity that isn't being looked at." Most of the plants won't be built, but enough will to ease the crunch in future years, if not this.The Northwest Power Planning Council announced May 25 that power supplies are expected to be reliable throughout the summer, with no risk of blackouts. That does not mean the Northwest is immune into the fall and winter. If the drought continues, a shortage of power, with blackouts, is possible.
