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.

LCG, October 23, 2025--Google announced today a first-of-its kind agreement to support a natural gas-fired power plant with carbon capture and storage (CCS). The 400-MW Broadwing Energy power project, located in Decatur, Illinois, will capture and permanently store its carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. By agreeing to buy most of the power it generates, Google is helping get this new, baseload power source built and connected to the regional grid that supports our data centers.

Press Release
ERCOT Electricity Market 2010 - Simulation of Zonal and Nodal Market
LCG CONSULTING is going to release a report on ERCOT Electricity Market 2010 - Simulation of Zonal and Nodal Market. This report summarizes the results of extensive hourly simulations of the current zonal and the proposed nodal ERCOT electricity market. Forecasts for energy and A/S prices, TCRs, LMPs, and congestion costs (CRRs) for 2010 are included in the report. The report can be customized to include additional details such as generator performance, hourly LMPs, transmission congestion, and other information of interest.
The simulation of the ERCOT market was conducted using UPLAN Network Power Model, which is used extensively by most market participants including ERCOT ISO for transmission project evaluation.
Please see the flyer for more information. Should you be interested in a preview of the report via webcast, please contact Julie Chien.
