LCG, November 19, 2025--Oklo Inc. and Siemens Energy announced today that the parties have signed a binding contract for the design and delivery of the power conversion system for Oklo’s Aurora-INL (Idaho National Laboratory) nuclear small modular reactor (SMR). The agreement authorizes Siemens Energy to begin engineering and design work to expedite procurement of long-lead components and to initiate the manufacturing process for the power conversion system. Oklo’s expertise in advanced fission technology will be combined with Siemens Energy’s extensive industry experience with steam turbine and generator systems, with the ultimate goal of generating carbon-free, reliable electricity.

LCG, November 19, 2025--NERC yesterday released its 2025–2026 Winter Reliability Assessment (WRA), which concludes "much of North America is again at an elevated risk of having insufficient energy supplies to meet demand in extreme operating conditions." The WRA does state that resources are adequate for normal winter peak demand, but extended, wide-area cold snaps will be challenging.

International Power Plans 580 Megawatt Long Island Plant
LCG, June 26, 2001International Power Plc, the British global energy company formed from the breakup of National Power, said this morning it has applied to New York state regulators for permission to build a 580 megawatt natural gas-fueled, combined-cycle power plant in Brookhaven on Long Island.The company said the New York State Board on Electric Generation Siting and the Environment will have 60 days to determine whether the application is complete and, if it is, another year to reach a final decision on the plant.Under this schedule, International Power said it hopes to begin construction of the Brookhaven plant in the second half of 2002 and have the plant ready for commercial operation in late 2004."Brookhaven will provide 580 megawatts of clean and affordable new generating capacity to the supply constrained Long Island power market where electricity prices are high and power plant siting is very difficult," said Peter Giller, International Power's chief executive.The New York Independent System Operator has estimated that 8,600 megawatts of new generation is required in the State by 2005 to avoid higher prices and the possibility of unreliable supplies. Presently, only about 1,700 megawatts of new capacity is under construction in New York.
