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. 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.

AEP Effort to Join PJM Gains Traction

LCG, May 20, 2004--Kentucky officials have changed their opposition to American Electric Power Co.'s participation in the PJM Interconnection into acceptance, leaving Virginia regulators as the main source of resistance to the company's application.

The Kentucky Public Service Commission wanted assurances that customers of AEP's Kentucky Power would not be made worse off if control of the utility's transmission system were transferred. AEP and PJM communicated to the commission that costs to customers would not outweigh the benefits, such that the commission was of the belief that no significant price increases or disruptions would result.

An administrative law judge with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission said in March that a decision still pending, and which could have overruled regulators in both states, would not be issued until May 20. An initial ruling favored AEP's joining PJM. The inclusion of part of AEP's large service territory, covering multiple states in the Midwest, within PJM would significantly boost the extent of the transmission network overseen by the grid operator.
