New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy signed legislation to subsidize the state’s nuclear generating fleet and boost renewable generation including solar, storage and offshore wind.

Exelon’s plans for its generation subsidiary rely heavily on a push for new legislation and market rule changes that ensure profitability for its plants.

PJM won’t abandon the Artificial Island transmission project because of threats to close the two nuclear plants it’s intended to support, the RTO said.

Citing reliability concerns, ISO-NE will ask FERC for a Tariff waiver to allow Exelon's 1,998-MW Mystic Generating Station to continue running.

Exelon filed with ISO-NE to retire the Mystic generating station, but the company said it “may reconsider” the decision if the RTO can reform its markets.

A Delaware demand-side group has asked the PJM Board of Managers to again suspend the Artificial Island transmission project.

PSEG CEO Ralph Izzo expressed confidence that the company’s five nuclear power plants will receive subsidies through New Jersey legislation.

Exelon executives expressed confidence during a fourth-quarter earnings call that other states will adopt zero-emission credit (ZEC) programs this year.

The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that FERC failed to adequately explain why it approved capacity market rules for ISO-NE.

NextEra Energy accused the Nuclear Energy Institute of “extortion,” saying it was spitefully denying the company access to a database used to screen workers.
