Texas officials have released a report that lays out a path for the state to become a “global nuclear energy hub.”  

Duke Energy reported third-quarter earnings of $1.226 billion ($1.60/share), a dip of about 15% from the same period in 2023, as its utility territories were hit by three hurricanes.

The NCUC approved Duke Energy's second Carbon Plan and Integrated Resource Plan, authorizing procurements of renewable energy, nuclear and demand response, while calling for its 8,000 MW of coal to be retired in 2036.

On top of its 350 MW of current data center load, PSEG has received formal applications for nearly 400 MW of new data center load and inquiries on over 1,200 MW in data center feasibility studies in new business.

Dominion Energy reported net income of $953 million in the third quarter this year, as it continued to see load growth from data centers, progress on its offshore wind project, and infrastructure damage from Hurricane Helene.

A common refrain at FERC’s technical conference on the co-location of data centers was that the issue is just part the broader problem of resource adequacy.

FERC rejected an amended ISA filed by PJM to allow an existing data center co-located at a Talen Energy nuclear plant to expand, saying it did not meet the commission's standards for changes from its pro forma rules.

Entergy said it can tackle industrial load growth with new solar, carbon capture technology at new and existing gas plants and by possibly bringing new nuclear capacity into the mix.
