Central New York is a ‘strong candidate’ to host Hochul’s planned nuclear plant
If Gov. Kathy Hochul is in a hurry to build the state’s first nuclear power plant in 50 years, Central New York is likely to be a leading contender to host it.
State officials announced today that the New York Power Authority will develop 1,000 megawatts of nuclear capacity as soon as possible, and they will begin searching for locations within weeks. The project could involve a single large reactor or several smaller ones.
