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.

Japanese Nuclear Waste Reprocessing Center Discovers Leak
LCG, Feb. 1, 2002--At a nuclear waste reprocessing center in Aomori Prefecture, Japan, a pool used to store spent nuclear fuel has apparently released at least 5,000 liters of water over the past six months.According to Japan Nuclear Fuel Ltd., which operates the facility in Rokkasho village, no danger exists to the surrounding environment. The leakage occurred in the main part of the center where reprocessing is scheduled to take place starting in July 2005.The pool's contents were transferred to an adjacent container that could hold the roughly 165 tons of spent fuel. The pool in which the leak was detected is being checked in order to see where repairs may be necessary. The facility will continue to accept fuel from nuclear plants throughout Japan.
