APS, a Pinnacle West unit, notified the NRC that it plans to seek subsequent license renewal for all three Palo Verde nuclear units, with an application expected in late 2027. The filing would extend operating licenses by 20 years, to 2065 for Unit 1 and 2067 for Unit 3. The NRC will conduct a regulatory review covering plant aging management and environmental protection, and it will hold public meetings for input. Separately, APS, SRP and Tucson Electric Power applied for a U.S. Department of Energy grant to support evaluation of possible sites for additional nuclear generation.
