CPS Energy 已达成协议，从 Constellation 手中收购南德克萨斯核项目 (STP) 额外 2% 的所有权。交易完成后，CPS Energy 对 STP 的持股比例将达到 42%，Constellation 的持股比例将达到 42%，Austin Energy 的持股比例将保持在 16%。此外，CPS Energy 与 Constellation 签订了一份长期购买电力协议 (PPA)，额外提供 200 兆瓦 (MW) 的固定容量，这些容量将在今年夏天及时提供给 CPS Energy 客户。

2024 年 5 月 2 日，CPS Energy、Austin Energy、NRG 和 Constellation 解决了关于 NRG 拟将南德克萨斯核项目 (STP) 权益出售给 Constellation South Texas LLC 以及相关优先购买权的争议。 CPS 能源公司和奥斯汀能源公司。作为该决议的一部分，CPS Energy 和 Austin Energy 将驳回针对 NRG 和 Constellation 的未决诉讼，并将撤回之前向核管理委员会提出的反对意见。

CPS Energy 总裁兼首席执行官 Rudy D. Garza 表示：“随着我们进入另一个夏季，在我们的系统中增加这些兆瓦功率可以为我们的客户提供可靠性。” “PS Energy 将继续专注于我们的 2027 年愿景计划，并将继续关注我们不断发展的社区的可靠性。”

CPS Energy 额外拥有 2% 的 STP 所有权，相当于在投资组合中增加 52 MW 的无碳可调度发电量，并支持 CPS Energy 的 2027 年愿景计划，该计划考虑在 2030 年之前淘汰 2,249 MW 的老发电容量。作为其发电计划的一部分，CPS Energy 已增加 1,710 MW 天然气、730 MW 太阳能和 50 MW 储能，另外 500 MW 储能 RFP 正在进行中。这些努力也符合 CPS Energy 对圣安东尼奥市气候行动与适应计划 (CAAP) 的承诺，其中包括支持 CAAP 到 2050 年实现碳中和的目标的董事会决议，以及中期目标是在 2016 年的基础上减少 41% 的温室气体排放，到 2040 年减少 71%。

CPS Energy has entered into an agreement to acquire an additional 2% ownership of the South Texas Nuclear Project (STP) from Constellation. When the transaction closes, it will bring CPS Energy’s ownership of STP to 42%, Constellation’s to 42%, and Austin Energy’s ownership will remain at 16%. Additionally, CPS Energy entered into a long-term Purchase Power Agreement (PPA) with Constellation for an additional 200 megawatts (MW) of firm capacity that will be available for CPS Energy customers in time for this summer.

On May 2, 2024, CPS Energy, Austin Energy, NRG, and Constellation resolved their disputes regarding the proposed sale of an interest in the South Texas Nuclear Project (STP) by NRG to Constellation South Texas LLC and the related rights of first refusal of CPS Energy and Austin Energy. As part of this resolution, CPS Energy and Austin Energy will dismiss their pending litigation against NRG and Constellation and will withdraw their objections previously filed with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

“The addition of these megawatts to our system supports reliability for our customers as we enter another summer season,” said Rudy D. Garza, President and CEO of CPS Energy. “CPS Energy continues to stay focused on our Vision 2027 plan and will continue our focus on reliability for our growing community.”

The additional 2% ownership of STP for CPS Energy will equate to an additional 52 MW of carbon free dispatchable generation to the portfolio and supports CPS Energy’s Vision 2027 plan that contemplates the retirement of 2,249 MW of older generation capacity before 2030. To date, CPS Energy has added 1,710 MW of natural gas, 730 MW of solar energy and 50 MW of energy storage as part of its generation plan, with an additional 500 MW energy storage RFP in the works. These efforts also align with CPS Energy’s commitment to the City of San Antonio’s Climate Action & Adaptation Plan (CAAP), which includes a Board of Trustees resolution to support the CAAP’s goal to become carbon neutral by 2050, and the interim goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 41% from 2016 levels and 71% by 2040.
