Constellation Files License Renewal Applications with the NRC for Two New York Units

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.

Ethanol Requirements are Sticking Point in Energy Legislaton

LCG, Oct. 20, 2003--A comprehensive national energy bill could be submitted for voting next week, but meanwhile, Republican House and Senate leaders are working to resolve differences that include questions on treatment of ethanol, the corn-based fuel.

A doubling in the share of ethanol as a percentage of overall fuel consumption is possible, although some legislators disagree on how much choice states should have on the amount of ethanol they might be required to purchase. Tax incentives of approximately $18 billion are a key part of the bill, which would promote new power plants, as well as research into fuels.

While Democrats have said that Republicans have generally not included them in negotiations, regional distinctions are clear on some issues among Republicans. Southern and Western representatives are less inclined go forth with de-centralizing large utilities. No consensus has emerged on where funds for upgrading strained transmission infrastructure should come from. If the bill is not completed by next week, negotiations may last through January of next year.
