Constellation seeks FERC help with Crane restart
When the former Three Mile Island-1 restarts in 2027 as the Crane Clean Energy Center, it will not face a delay of several years before it can be reconnected to the grid, Constellation CEO Joseph Dominguez said this week.
Among the items that emerged on Constellation and the Crane restart in Middletown, Pa., during last week’s CERAWeek energy conference was a Reuters report on an analysis from electric grid provider PJM suggesting the plant may not be connected to the grid until 2031.

A simple method of calculating the cross section for the inelastic scattering of neutrons by deformed nuclei is presented. The compound nucleus and direct interaction contributions are evaluated, and approximate provision is made for the competing effects of radiative capture and fission processes. The method is used for analyzing the scattering of 0.2- to 5-MeV neutrons by 238U to both discrete and continuum states.
