NextEra Energy wants to avoid shutdown costs, extend license for old Point Beach Nuclear Plant.

Energy group requests license renewal for Two Creeks nuclear plant https://fox11online.com/news/local/energy-group-requests-license-renewal-for-two-creeks-nuclear-plant by Brian Kerhin, FOX 11 News, Thursday, February 4th 2021  TWO CREEKS (WLUK) – The public will have a chance to comment on the license renewal request for the Point Beach Nuclear Plant.

NextEra Energy wants to operate the facility, which is 13 miles north of Manitowoc, for another 20 years. There are two nuclear generators at the plant. The current licenses expire in 2030 and 2033.

A webinar is planned for 1 p.m., Feb. 17, to discuss the environmental review process, with a Feb. 10 deadline to register.

A copy of the application and related environmental report is available for public inspection at the Lester Public Library, 1001 Adams St., in Two Rivers.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is expected to make a decision on the application in about 18 months.

The plant opened in 1970 with one reactor, while the second reactor opened in 1973.

Point Beach is the last remaining nuclear plant in the state. The Kewaunee nuclear plant closed in 2013, while a LaCrosse facility closed in 1987.
