TVA's Bellefonte Nuclear Plant near Scottsboro TVA unveils plan to boost nuclear capacity to about 45%
The Tennessee Valley Authority is planning a 10-year expansion of its Bellefonte nuclear plant in Alabama that would boost the company's nuclear-generated electricity share to about 45% from the current 20% to 25%. It would also shrink coal-generated power from 60% to less than 50%, according to TVA Chief Operating Officer Bill McCollum. The TVA's nuclear plans could mean an additional 30% output at the Browns Ferry plant in Athens, Ala., and revival of the partially finished Bellefonte station in Alabama's Jackson County.
