SONGS Owner OK’d to Spend $405M on Decommissioning in 2020

摘要

A California regulator has authorized Southern California Edison to withdraw $405.5 million this year from the trusts that will pay for decommissioning of the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS). The March 6 decision from the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) rejects a challenge from a state watchdog organization, even though Southern California Edison acknowledged that its forecast cost for the year is $260.1 million higher in 2020 dollars than what it estimated three years ago.
