Amazon has revised its agreement with Talen Energy to secure power for a Pennsylvania datacenter from the Susquehanna nuclear plant. This updated deal, providing 1,920 MW of nuclear power through 2042, avoids previous regulatory scrutiny that blocked an earlier attempt to expand the datacenter's load. Key to this arrangement is the clarification that it does not require additional approvals from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), as it qualifies as a 'front-of-the-meter' agreement, which may include future upgrades and expansions at the nuclear plant site.
The newly amended power purchase agreement with Amazon for the Susquehanna nuclear plant avoids prior regulatory hurdles and supports the datacenter operations in the region.
Talen’s PPA guarantees 1,920 MW of nuclear power for Amazon's datacenter operations until 2042, while also aiming to upgrade and potentially expand energy output.
