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.

Groundbreaking for Solar PV Projects in Ontario
LCG, March 30, 2010--The groundbreaking ceremony occurred yesterday for two solar photovoltaic (PV) projects located in Norfolk County, Ontario. The projects, SunE Sky Norfolk I and II, have a combined electric generating capacity of 18 MW.
SunEdison, a subsidiary of MEMC Electronic Materials, and SkyPower Limited are developing the projects under a joint venture agreement, and the Ontario Power Authority (OPA) has contracted to purchase the electricity generated.
In January, the Ontario government announced that it signed an agreement with a Korean consortium to invest C$7 billion to generate 2,500 MW of wind and solar power. The consortium, led by Samsung C&T Corporation and the Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO), will work with major partners to attract four manufacturing plants related to wind and solar technology for use in Ontario and export to the United States.
Ontario's commitment toward renewable power follows revisions last year to Ontario Power Generation's (OPG) plans to close four coal-fired, power plants, with a combined generating capacity of 2,000 MW, four years ahead of schedule.
