LCG, August 14, 2026--The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced today that it has awarded Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) $271 million to help support the extended operations of the company's nuclear power facility, Diablo Canyon Power Plant, which is located near Avila Beach, California. The federal Civil Nuclear Credit Program (CNCP) funding will allow the 2,240-MW nuclear facility, which supplies nearly ten percent of the electricity consumed by the state's population, to continue to safely generate secure, carbon-free, baseload power to customers.

Black Hills Sells Output of Two Small New Plants
LCG, March 21, 2001--Black Hills Energy Ventures, the independent energy business unit of Black Hills Corp., said yesterday it has secured long-term contracts for the output of its new 40 megawatt gas-fired combustion turbine and 90 megawatt coal-fired power plants under construction near Gillette, Wyo.The company said Cheyenne Light, Fuel & Power Co. will take all 40 megawatts from the gas turbine peaking facility under 10-year contract beginning this September. The plant is scheduled to begin commercial operation in June and will sell power into the regional wholesale market until the contract goes into effect.Most of the power from the coal-burner has been contracted for by Cheyenne Light under another 10-year arrangement. The Municipal Electric Agency of Nebraska has signed a 10-year contract for the majority of the balance.Daniel P. Lundguth, Black Hills Corp. chief executive, said "The contracts identify substantial revenue streams that provide sufficient cash flow to service expected debt and lease payments while yielding attractive returns on investment. In addition, coal production will increase at our Wyodak mine as a consequence of operating the new power plant, augmenting its economic contribution to Black Hills Corp."
