LCG, May 6, 2026--Oklo Inc. ("Oklo"), an advanced nuclear technology company, announced today that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has approved the Principal Design Criteria (PDC) topical report for the Aurora-INL (Idaho National Laboratory) nuclear small modular reactor (SMR), which is currently under construction in Idaho. The PDC topical report establishes a regulatory framework that defines the fundamental safety, reliability, and performance requirements to guide future reactor licensing and design activities, and the approved report should simplify future applications and reduce the need to re-review established material.

Progress Energy Executes Contract for New Nuclear Station
LCG, January 6, 2009--Progress Energy yesterday announced that it signed a $7.65 billion contract for two planned nuclear reactors to be constructed at a greenfield site in Levy County near Crystal River, Florida. The contract scope includes nuclear engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) by Westinghouse Electric and The Shaw Group. The total cost of the nuclear power station is estimated to be over $17 billion.
Progress Energy Florida, a subsidiary of Progress Energy, plans to install two Westinghouse AP1000 reactors that each have a nominal electric generating capacity of 1,100 MW. The AP1000 design incorporates passive safety features that rely upon natural forces and was certified by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) in 2006. The NRC is now reviewing a Westinghouse application, submitted in May 2007, to amend the certified design.
In April 2008, Progress Energy announced that it had executed a letter of intent with Westinghouse Electric and The Shaw Group Inc. to purchase long-lead materials for the nuclear reactors.
In July the Florida Public Service Commission approved the proposal submitted in March by Progress Energy Florida for a determination of need to build the two reactors, with the first reactor scheduled to be operational in 2016, and the second reactor in the following year.
On October 6, 2008, the NRC accepted for review, a combined construction and operating license (COL) application submitted in July by Progress Energy Florida for the new nuclear station in Florida.
