Nearly 70 students from across the U.S. joined Constellation’s Youth Energy Summit to explore careers in clean energy and gain hands-on experience. Hear from our team, @TheNEED_Project, and the students themselves on why they were proud to say “Y.E.S.” to their future.
Summer internships are underway! Welcoming 250+ young professionals to learn from some of the best in their respective fields, make meaningful contributions across our Corporate, Commercial and Generation businesses and experience why Constellation is a great place to work.
The data is in, and it shows that nuclear power may be even better for the environment than you thought...
Life cycle assessments consistently show nuclear has some of the lowest environmental impacts per megawatt-hour, even compared to wind and solar.

That’s it?
This is what 45 years of spent nuclear fuel looks like safely stored @DominionEnergy’s North Anna nuclear power plant.
Each cask helped avoid more than 3 million metric tons of emissions!
Celebrate National Renewable Energy Day by embracing the powerful partnership between nuclear power and renewable energy. Together, nuclear, solar, wind and hydro power form the foundation for our clean energy future.
It’s official! Constellation’s Criterion wind repower project is complete, allowing the #CarbonFree energy source to run for 20 more years. This project was just one part of our larger $350 million investment in our renewable energy fleet.
A member of the Penn State and Springfield family tragically passed away this week, leaving behind a wife and a one-year-old. Please consider giving something, what they’re going through has to be unfathomable.

Muddy Run Pumped Storage Facility provides clean, reliable generation during times of peak demand. Recently, Muddy Run also served to spark interest & fascination in #STEM fields for elementary school students involved with the Together We Rise mentoring program.
I've been disappointed in content coming from @sciam for a while now, so I guess I'm not surprised to see this.
Let’s examine these claims:
1. Is nuclear waste “piling up”
2. Is nuclear waste becoming unsafe?
3. Do we need a repository now?
Clean hydrogen production is underway at the Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station in Oswego, New York. The facility is the first-of-its-kind in the United States to generate clean hydrogen using nuclear power.
A lot to unpack here, but worth going through
1. "It's too expensive..."
A nuclear plant requires a lot of money up front to build. But given the lifetime of these plants and how much electricity they reliably produce, they generate cheap electricity over long periods of time.
We heard you loud and clear, and there's a lot to say about nuclear power.
Check out this thread to uncover the best resources for learning more about our country’s largest source of carbon-free energy.
MYTH: radiation is uniquely dangerous, and there’s no safe exposure – no matter how small.
REALITY: the idea of “no safe exposure” has caused far more harm to public health than actual radiation from all nuclear accidents.
Here's what you need to know:
🤡 Most of Sydney’s electricity comes from coal.
This is referring to the city govt getting enough RECs to offset its electricity use for govt buildings only. Even with the highest penetration of rooftop solar in the world, we have a long way to go.
We understand the importance of a reliable, carbon-free energy source.
It's why we spend millions of dollars annually on capital projects to improve and modernize equipment at our plants to ensure they run reliably and efficiently.

It’s disappointing to see @PeterZeihan pull the same old ‘I’m pro-nuclear BUT’ schtick on Joe Rogan.
Let’s put these anti-nuclear myths to bed and clear the record:
@xLuckTV @Grattzky @Nealerrr It’s not his goals for, it’s the team’s goals for percentage while he’s on the ice. It means the other team scores way more than the his team does during his minutes.
