The nation’s #1 producer of zero-emissions energy is accelerating the transition to a carbon-free future. 
 

Constellation is America’s #1 producer of nothing.  Zero pollution. Zero emissions. In fact, Constellation produces more clean, emissions-free, reliable energy than any other company in America. Because while most energy companies are focused on reaching net zero goals in the coming decades, Constellation is committed to a true zero energy future, and we’re making progress, with annual energy output that is already nearly 90% carbon-free. If policy and financial support continues, we are on a path to life extensions of our emissions-free nuclear plants and for investments to increase their output. These plants serve as clean energy centers that not only supply carbon-free energy to the grid 24/7, but also can power new technologies, including artificial intelligence, that has the potential to transform entire industries and lead to technological breakthroughs in everything from medicine to climate change solutions.

Constellation by the Numbers


Policies and Positions

Constellation advocates before federal, state and local policymakers for programs that drive decarbonization and maximize value for our business and stakeholders. Our policy priorities include support for clean, carbon-free energy generation—including the preservation and expansion of nuclear power—hourly carbon-free energy products, accurate GHG emissions accounting and competitive retail and wholesale markets that incentivize the retention and deployment of clean, carbon-free energy resources.

 

Reliability and Resiliency

Grid Reliability

Grid reliability ensures that the electricity we use in our homes and buildings is always available when we need it. This is critical to America’s economic stability, energy security and climate resilience. Constellation advocates for policies that increase reliability, promote market-based solutions and incentivize electricity generators to develop new or update existing reliable energy sources. Explore our commitment to grid reliability. Learn more about reliability

Energy Markets
(Valuing Reliability & Resilience)

Energy markets are crucial for ensuring that our energy system is reliable, affordable, and resilient. Reliability means having a continuous supply of power even in challenging situations like storms or cyberattacks, while resilience means being able to recover quickly from any disruptions. To achieve this, energy markets need to incentivize investments in grid infrastructure, advanced technologies, and contingency plans. Learn how energy markets can use different strategies to integrate these dynamics, promoting an adaptable energy system that withstands grid stability challenges at the lowest cost.  Learn more about energy markets

Co-Locating Loads
(Customer & Grid Benefits)

Co-locating loads with existing generation resources optimizes energy use and minimizes the need for costly and time-consuming grid-infrastructure upgrades. In addition to these benefits, co-locating new load with existing generation resources, provides the financial stability of a long-term customer which, for a nuclear generation resource, can forestall premature retirement and enable NRC license extensions and potential uprates. Discover more about how co-locating loads can revolutionize energy consumption and contribute to a sustainable future. Learn more about co-location

 

 

Nuclear  

Properly Valuing Nuclear Energy

Nuclear power provides clean energy that is always on, 24/7, with zero emissions. See how Constellation ensures nuclear power is properly valued for its carbon-free, reliable and affordable attributes – qualities that make it a vital resource for the energy transition. Learn more about nuclear energy

Nuclear Preservation

Preserving existing nuclear plants is critical for a sustainable and clean energy future. Market and policy mechanisms that ensure continued operation of nuclear plants are essential for protecting high-paying jobs, supporting communities and maintaining the environmental benefits provided by the nation’s largest source of carbon-free electricity. Discover how Constellation’s latest initiatives advance nuclear preservation and advocate support for the nation’s clean energy objectives. Learn more about nuclear preservation

Nuclear License Renewal
