Last nuclear power plant in California may run for another 20 years. Here’s what changed
NOVEMBER 07, 2023
PG&E has filed its relicensing application to keep California’s last nuclear power plant running 20 years beyond its scheduled closure date.
The application was submitted to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission on Tuesday morning and comes a year and two months after Gov. Gavin Newsom signed Senate Bill 846 to allow extended operations at the 2,200-megawatt Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant in coastal San Luis Obispo County.
