LCG, November 6, 2025--X-energy Reactor Company, LLC, (X-energy) and the U.S. Office of Nuclear Energy today announced the start of confirmatory irradiation testing at Idaho National Laboratory (INL) to qualify X-energy’s proprietary TRISO-X fuel pebbles for commercial use in the Xe-100 Small Modular Reactor (SMR). (TRISO stands for TRi-structural ISOtropic). This is the first time that TRISO-X fuel pebbles will undergo irradiation testing in a U.S. lab, which is a critical step in meeting requirements set forth by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for the commercial deployment of advanced reactors that will use the fuel.

LCG, October 28, 2025--NextEra Energy and Google yesterday announced two agreements that will help meet growing electricity demand from artificial intelligence (AI) with clean, reliable, 24/7 nuclear power and strengthen the nation's nuclear leadership. First, Google signed a new, 25-year agreement for power generated at the Duane Arnold Energy Center, Iowa's only nuclear power facility. The 601-MW boiling water reactor unit was shut down in 2020 and is expected to commence operations by the first quarter of 2029, pending regulatory approvals to restart the plant.

EPCOR Expands Wind Farm Potential in Ontario
LCG, April 22, 2005--EPCOR has reached an agreement to acquire Port Albert Wind Farms, Ltd. (PAWF), including the development and interconnection rights for more than 270 MW of electric generation derived from the wind along the western shores of Lake Huron.In Ontario, EPCOR is already constructing the Kingsbridge Wind Power Project that is scheduled to commence operations in late 2005 or early 2006. The 39.6-MW project, located near Goderich, is adjacent to most of the development rights acquired from PAWF.The Kingsbridge Wind Power Project was selected last November by the Ontario Ministry of Energy following the release of the Ontario government's Request for Proposals (RFP) for renewable energy supplies earlier last year. New energy supplies are critical to the Province of Ontario, which has already committed to closing 7,600 MW of coal-fired generating capacity - including the 1,140-MW Lakeview Generating Station this month - by 2008 in order to improve air quality.
