US FERC Rejects Amazon-Talen Nuclear Power Agreement

Reported 22 days ago

The US Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) has rejected an amended service agreement that aimed to increase the load capacity of Amazon's data center at the Susquehanna nuclear facility in Pennsylvania from 300MW to 480MW. FERC raised concerns about the potential impact on public electricity costs and grid reliability, citing unresolved financial responsibilities for necessary upgrades. Talen Energy warned that this decision could hinder economic development in states like Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
