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.

Palo Verde Unit 2 Down for Control Repairs
LCG, Oct. 11, 2001--Arizona Public Service Co. yesterday shut down its 1,270 megawatt Palo Verde Unit 2 nuclear power plant for repairs to its control system, characterizing the shutdown as "unscheduled maintenance."During a scheduled 35-day refueling shutdown of Unit 3 beginning September 29, operators identified degradation of the control systems. Because Unit 3 is an identical twin of Unit 2, the latter unit was shut down as a preventive measure yesterday.APS said the work could take up to a month to complete."Replacement activities in Units 2 and 3 will not impact the schedule for Unit 3's refueling, which is expected to be complete in early November," APS said.The control assemblies of 1,270 megawatt Unit 1 at Palo Verde were changed during a refueling outage earlier this year, the company said.
