The Pubic Staff of the N.C. Utilities Commission says in a regulatory filing made today that Duke acknowledges it has “been in communication with Santee.” Santee Cooper has announced it would like to sell at least a portion of its 45% share in the $9.1 billion project. Scana owns the remaining 55%.
The staff sounded Duke out about its interest in the Summer plant as Duke has asked the commission for permission to spend $287 million more on planning for its own proposed 2,234-megawatt Lee Nuclear Station. Duke has already spent about $172 million on planning for that plant.
