NY sees reliable power system, but warns of risks

Image via WikipediaReport: Retirement of Indian Point could threaten N.Y. power grid
The possible shutdown of Entergy's Indian Point nuclear plant could threaten New York's reliability needs, according to a report by the New York ISO, the state's power grid operator. Reliability breaches could occur in 2016 if the nuclear facility's operating licenses expire in 2013 and 2015, the report added. Those violations could involve the loss of power in the New York City metro area. Reuters
