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.

Nevada Power Files Appeal on Pricy Long-Term Contracts
LCG, Apr. 12, 2002--Utility Nevada Power, which had indicated that it could face bankruptcy unless it received approval to recover costs incurred for long-term power purchases, yesterday filed an appeal with the District Court in Carson City to overturn an unfavorable, unanimous rate ruling by Nevada's three-member Public Utilities Commission.The PUC ruling allowed Nevada Power to recover $485 million out of $922 million requested. Regulators determined that purchases by the utility made during last year's Western power market crisis were imprudent. The utility signed long-term contracts at prices of up to $172 per megawatt-hour.Nevada Power, which also plans to appeal directly to the PUC for another hearing on the matter, filed the appeal with the District Court in the hopes that it could obtain a judicial order granting its request. Attorneys for intervenors do not see a strong possibility that a judge would be likely to disagree with the commission's findings.Andrea Smith, a spokesman for Nevada Power said, "we believe the company and community are at risk. We're going to pursue whatever remedies are available to us, and this is one of those remedies." Suppliers and creditors of Nevada Power such as Reliant Energy are seeking their own risk-protection in the form of cash payments, letters of credit or collateral for new power-purchase contracts.
