The Nuclear Regulatory Commission, or NRC, approved Pacific Gas and Electric Company’s exemption request to allow continued operations at Diablo Canyon Power Plant, or DCPP, past the plant’s current licenses, the company announced. "This exemption will allow PG&E, similar to exemptions granted to other utilities, to continue operating both units at DCPP while the company’s License Renewal Application (LRA) is under review.The NRC’s decision supports the state’s direction under California Senate Bill 846 to seek to extend plant operations to support statewide electric reliability during the clean energy transition. PG&E intends to submit a new LRA by the end of 2023. The current NRC operating licenses for Units 1 and 2 expire in 2024 and 2025, respectively," the company stated.
