FPL Still Seeking to Build Nuke Plant at Turkey Point

In this mention

Duke Energy postponed plans to build two nuclear reactors in Levy County, Florida, citing economic concerns and federal licensing delays. George Cavros, Florida energy policy attorney for the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy, argues that FPL's Turkey Point nuclear expansion is no longer economically feasible compared to lower-cost alternatives like natural gas and solar power, citing changed economic drivers since 2008 applications were filed.

Our contention is the plant is no longer feasible when compared to lower-risk, lower-cost options
