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.

LCG, October 23, 2025--Google announced today a first-of-its kind agreement to support a natural gas-fired power plant with carbon capture and storage (CCS). The 400-MW Broadwing Energy power project, located in Decatur, Illinois, will capture and permanently store its carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. By agreeing to buy most of the power it generates, Google is helping get this new, baseload power source built and connected to the regional grid that supports our data centers.

Ground-Breaking for Westar's 100-MW Wind Farm in Kansas
LCG, June 25, 2008--Westar Energy Inc. and BP Alternative Energy North America Inc. held the ground breaking ceremony yesterday for the Flat Ridge Wind Farm site in Nashville, Kansas. The project is scheduled to be connected to the grid and produce power by the end of 2008.
The Flat Ridge Wind Farm will include 40 Clipper 2.5 MW C-96 wind turbine generators that are to be delivered next month. BP developed the project on the 5,000 acre site, which is located approximately 60 miles southwest of Wichita. Westar will own half of the wind project and buy energy from the other half under a power purchase agreement (PPA).
Westar has two similar wind projects planned: Meridian Way Wind Farm in Cloud County and Central Plains Wind Farm in Wichita County. The combined electric generating capacity of the three plants is 300 MW.
