A partner, Bloomington, Indiana-based cooperative <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/energy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hoosier Energy<\/a>, will purchase the rest.

Fuel was removed from the reactor core and federal regulators were notified of &#8220;permanent cessation of power operations.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But with support from Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and leaders in the Lake Michigan community where Palisades was a key economic player for 50 years, Holtec began a campaign to bring back the 800-megawatt plant.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are thrilled to enter into this partnership,&#8221; Kelly Trice, President of Holtec Nuclear Generation and Decommissioning, said in a statement. &#8220;The executed power purchase agreement represents a significant milestone in our journey towards reopening the plant.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Wolverine CEO Eric Baker said restarting Palisades &#8220;offers a practical, long-term solution to electric reliability in our state and aligns with Michigan\u2019s ambitious goals to reduce carbon emissions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Critic Kevin Kamps, a radioactive waste specialist for an anti-nuclear power group called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/disasters\/nuclear\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Beyond Nuclear<\/a>, called the agreement &#8220;madness&#8221; given the plant&#8217;s history of mechanical problems.<\/p>\n<p>Michigan lawmakers included $150 million toward the restart in the recently passed $81.7 billion state budget.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/shuttered-nuclear-plant-michigan-gains-step-closer-to-reopening-following-new-purchase-agreement\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/shuttered-nuclear-plant-michigan-gains-step-closer-to-reopening-following-new-purchase-agreement <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A company seeking to restart a southwestern Michigan nuclear power plant said Tuesday it has taken a major step forward with the signing of a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"twitter_2902945987_2902945987":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[16563],"tags":[],"stock_ticker":[],"class_list":["post-79114","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-market-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
