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.

California ISO Approves 300-MW Beltran Solar Project
LCG, June 17, 2015-Centauri Energy, LLC yesterday announced that it has received approval from the California Independent System Operation (CAISO) to secure a queue position for Beltran Solar, the company's 300-MW solar project in California. The queue position enables Beltran Solar to connect the planned facility to California's electric grid.
The Beltran Solar project site is located approximately an hour southeast of the Bay Area in Stanislaus County, California. The project includes three separate land parcels that will be developed in three phases and span in total approximately 1,600 acres. The three phases will take a total of 18 to 24 months to complete. The first phase scheduled to deliver power to the grid in 2016 and 2017.
Centauri Energy's CEO and president stated, "Having Beltran Solar approved by CAISO for a queue position marks an important milestone for us. Beltran Solar has been in development for more than five years. The permits have been issued, the environmental impact studies are finished and now the CAISO application is approved. These are some of the biggest hurdles for a large-scale project like this. With all of these complete, we're ready to develop."
