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.

India's Tata in Talks to Buy Enron's Dabhol Power
LCG, Oct. 15, 2001--India's Tata conglomerate has held "exploratory" talks to take over from Enron Corp. its 65 percent stake in the $2.9 billion, 2,184 megawatt Dabhol power plant in the Indian state of Maharashtra, the Financial Times reported yesterday.Enron, weary of the difficulty in getting paid for power produced by Dabhol and by constant bickering with the Maharashtra State Electricity Board, its only customer, over terms of a contract signed in the mid-1990s, said in July that it wanted out of India and would accept about $1 billion for its interest in Dabhol.Tate Power has notified the Indian government expressing interest in Dabhol, which it said would require the removal of significant roadblocks. Among these would be a renegotiation of Dabhol's tariffs and a reduction in the interest rates on Dabhol's debt. Tata Power is talking about paying Enron about 80 cents on the dollar for its investment in Dabhol, a figure that may not be palatable to the Texas-based company.Spokesman John Ambler said Enron continued to believe the best and quickest way to solve the problem would be for the Indian government, or one of its Indian financial backers, to take on Dabhol.The Dabhol Power project is India's largest foreign investment, even though Indian lenders provided $1.4 billion in financing for the plant. About $630 million was provided by foreign institutions.
