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.

FPL Energy Moves Forward with North Dakota Wind Farm
LCG, March 30, 2007-- Minnkota Power Cooperative, Inc., and Otter Tail Power Company yesterday announced that they had executed an agreement with FPL Energy to develop the Langdon Wind Project in Cavalier County, North Dakota. The agreement is a result of requests for proposals (RFPs) issued by Minnkota and Otter Tail in 2006.
FPL Energy will construct and operate the Langdon Wind Project, which will have a total capacity of 159 MW. The wind farm will include 106 GE turbines, each with a capacity of 1.5 MW.
The 25-year agreements call for Minnkota to purchase 99 MW of generation and Otter Tail to purchase 19.5 MW of generation. The remaining 40.5 MW of generation will be owned by Otter Tail.
In concert with the development of the wind farm, Minnkota and Otter Tail plan to upgrade 35 miles of 41.6 kv transmission line to 115 kv in order to enable the wind power to reach load centers. The new wind farm and related transmission upgrade are scheduled to be completed by early 2008.
