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.

Glacier Hills Wind Farm Approved by PSC of Wisconsin
LCG, January 13, 2010--The Public Service Commission (PSC) of Wisconsin yesterday approved We Energies' application for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (CPCN) to construct the Glacier Hills Wind Farm in Columbia County. The project is estimated to cost between $335 million and $435 million, with an electric generating capacity of up to 207 MW.
The Glacier Hills Wind Farm project will include 90 wind turbines, and each turbine will have a generating capacity of 1.5 to 2.3 MW. The project will be connected to an existing 138-kV electric transmission line. The wind farm footprint encompasses approximately 17,300 acres.
The application for the CPCN was filed in October 2008. Wisconsin legislation passed in March 2006 increased renewable portfolio standards (RPS) and set a renewable energy target of 10% by December 31, 2015 for utilities.
