Entergy's Nuclear Spin-off Spinning Wheels In New York

摘要

With the problems at its Vermont Yankee nuclear plant looming ever larger, Entergy Corp.'s plan to spin off six reactors into a new merchant unit appeared to sink further into a bureaucratic morass at the New York State Public Service Commission last week, leading to new calls on Wall Street for the company to abandon the proposed restructuring.rnAt a meeting Thursday, the New York commission deferred action on Entergy's proposal after Public Service Commission (PSC) staff gave an initial thumbs-down on a new March 2 plan submitted by the company to address the staff's concerns about the financial stability of Enexus Energy Corp., which would include three reactors in New York.
