Three Mile Island Nuclear Plant Could Reopen in 2027
- Constellation Energy aims to restart the first reactor unit at the facility formerly known as Three Mile Island, now renamed the Crane Clean Energy Center in Pennsylvania, with operations expected to resume as early as 2027.
- This restart follows the 2019 economic shutdown of Unit 1 and benefits from federal incentives, including tax credits from the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act.
- The company will invest about $1.6 billion in upgrades, has hired over 200 full-time employees, and expects to create 650 local jobs.
- Governor Shapiro emphasized that restarting Three Mile Island aligns with his commitment to diverse energy sources and will generate increased opportunities for Pennsylvanians.
- The restart aims to provide over 800 megawatts of clean power and generate significant economic benefits, though opponents cite the 1979 Unit 2 meltdown to demand strict safety oversight.
