Nuclear power inclusion as an optional resource in a utility's integrated resource plan requirement provision and state application for nuclear-powered electric generating plants requirement provision

Summary

The bill amends the rules for utility integrated resource plans so that electric utilities may propose nuclear‑powered plants as an option and must explain why they are not chosen as a preferred resource. It also directs the state department to track and apply for any federal funding available for nuclear‑powered generating projects and to report on those applications each year. The measures aim to keep nuclear energy on the table as Minnesota plans its future energy mix.
