Exelon announces three reactor closures: Clinton in 2017, Quad Cities 1
& 2 in 2018
As anticipated by WTTW, and now confirmed with Exelon Nuclear filings
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
These three just announced reactor closures now join another already
announced reactor closure by Exelon -- Oyster Creek, NJ in 2019. But
Ginna, NY and Three Mile Island, PA are also non-competitive, and in
serious trouble. Exelon is seeking massive ratepayer subsidies to keep
those failing reactors afloat. (See graphic, above.)
But, despite Exelon's apparent moves to follow through on closing three
reactors in IL, Crain's Chicago Business reports "Exelon could reverse
the decision later if lawmakers act."
As David Kraft, Director of Nuclear Energy Information Service of
Chicago, has already advised his members, we will need to remain vigilant.
