LCG, June 29, 2026--Constellation announced on June 26 that it has filed license renewal applications with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to extend for 20 years the operations of Ginna Clean Energy Center and Nine Mile Point Unit 1 reactors in upstate New York to 2049. Constellation stated that it's decision to invest in these plants to extend their safe and reliable operations into mid-century demonstrates that New York State's renewal of its Zero Emissions Credit (ZEC) program is working as intended. Furthermore, Constellation stated that maintaining its nuclear fleet is estimated to save New Yorkers $50 billion and sustain reliable emissions-free generation resources to serve increasing electricity demands.

BP and Reliant Respond to Western Manipulation Fine
LCG, Apr. 18, 2003--BP Energy and Reliant Resources, having received a "show cause" order from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission regarding "apparent" market manipulation by traders they employed, responded this week by saying the penalties proposed were excessively punitive.Three separate incidents were cited by FERC in which a BP trader initiated discussions on electric power trades to be conducted at Arizona's Palo Verde trading hub. As part of a penalty, FERC could strip the companies' licenses to trade.Reliant Resources said that consideration should be given to the company's having revealed evidence on a trader's practices and communications that served as the basis for FERC's order. Company representatives also said that while the actions by the former trader were "plainly wrong," no harm actually occurred in the market, as the trades were not outside the market levels seen at the time. Reliant also said it had undertaken "significant and meaningful reforms in its trading operations." BP asserted that the trades were not meant to manipulate the market, and did not lead to profits being realized by its trader. While it said it "regrets and apologizes for the trader's conduct relate to these trades," BP Energy contended that stripping its license would be "significantly disproportionate to the alleged misconduct."Reliant Resources announced in early March that it would exit energy trading following an $80 million loss it suffered in the natural gas market.
