Description

Constellation Energy floated the idea of improvements or expansion at its Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, including adding a third nuclear reactor, small modular reactors, or technological upgrades to boost output. These projects are longer-term and would require an infusion of private or public dollars to move forward. The estimated cost for adding a third reactor is around $10 billion, with smaller upgrades costing less. Constellation is exploring risk-sharing arrangements with large-load customers and investor funds to support these projects.
