LCG, February 20, 2026--The EIA today issued an "in-brief analysis" that estimates U.S. power plant developers and operators plan to complete a record installation of 86 GW of new, utility-scale electric generating capacity that is connected to the U.S. power grid in 2026. Last year, 53 GW of new capacity was added to the grid, which was the largest capacity installation in a single year since 2002. Thus the estimate of 86 GW of new capacity in 2026 is a whopping 33 GW greater than the year prior. It should be noted that over 20 GW of the 86 GW of new capacity this year is estimated to be completed in December.

NRC Renews Operating License for Beaver Valley Power Station in Pennsylvania
LCG, November 6, 2009--The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) announced yesterday that it approved the renewal for 20 years of the operating licenses for Units 1 and 2 at the Beaver Valley Power Station in Pennsylvania. With the 20-year extension, the nuclear units are licensed to operate until January 29, 2036, and May 27, 2047, respectively. Units 1 and 2 went into operation in 1976 and 1987.
FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company, the operator of 1,815-MW Beaver Valley Power Station, submitted the application on August 27, 2007. The NRC performed safety and environmental reviews, of the two, pressurized-water nuclear reactors prior to approving the applications.
The NRC stated that the Beaver Valley licenses represent the 56th and 57th reactor licenses that it has renewed. Furthermore, there are now 13 applications for 20 units that are under review by the NRC.
