Exelon buys Constellation

[Rennhack]

THE FACTS

NEW EXELON
20 Nuclear Reactors
Revenue 32.9 Billion

NEW DUKE
12 Nuclear Reactors
Revenue 22.7 Billion

DUKE FOR THE WIN!! AS LARGEST , GOOD TRY EXELON

I don't have a dog in this race, but by YOUR numbers, Exelon has Duke beat in # of reactors, and revenue.

And your numbers just don't add up.  You say exelon does 34,400 MW for 20 reactors (1720 mw each) and Duke does 57,200 with 20 reactors (4,767 each).

I don't mean to piss in your cheerios, but I don't know of any US nuclear reactor that can produce 4,800 MW.

DUKE FOR THE WIN!! AS LARGEST , GOOD TRY EXELON

Total generation I listed is not all nuclear. That is the total amount generated by the company whether it be nuke,gas,coal. The MW generation is in no comparision to the amount of nukes they have( I was just making a note of how many each company has after mergers). Exelon has more revenue but over all is not a bigger company nor do they generate more electricity. Exelon will have the largest reactor fleet. But remember only ~20% of the US elec comes from nuke.

Since we're ranking, how about NextEra, Entergy, TransCanada, et. al.?  How do they stack up against Duke and the Evil Empire?

TEX-INSP,

Sometime the obvious gets overlooked...

Now that Exelon has broken the Zero Barrier, (Mason Dixon Line), the playing field is wide open!

Y'all...U-Guy'z take care.....

Ha ha there wont be any U-Guy'z funny talk around this way. Off the top of my head (nuclear wise) I dont think Constellation has any plants below Mason Dixon Line.They do have 1 non nuke plant in Alabama and 2 in Texas. The new Duke will be the big dog of the south east and still the biggest electric utility in the USA.

I see the near future being roughly 3-4 companies owning the whole US electric market. All these merged companies will buy up the smaller companies. Entergy and Southern Company would be the next merger in my book, if things keep going the way they are.

The new Duke will be the big dog of the south east and still the biggest electric utility in the USA. 

And DE has several non-nuke north of the M/D line and at least 2 nukes in the licensing pipeline (3 if you believe that the old SCG&E will be DE by the first of 2012)!

Since we're ranking, how about NextEra, Entergy, TransCanada, et. al.?  How do they stack up against Duke and the Evil Empire?

Next Era Energy
Revenue ~15 Billion
Total capacity 43,000MW
8 Reactors
Largest generator of wind and solor in North America

Entergy
Revenue ~11.5 Billion
Total Capacity 30,00MW
11 Reactors

Southern Company
Revenue 15.7 Billion
Total capacity 42,000MW
6 Reactors

Dominion
Revenue ~ 15Billion
Total capacity 27,600 MW
6 Reactors
Largest natural gas storager in USA

And DE has several non-nuke north of the M/D line and at least 2 nukes in the licensing pipeline (3 if you believe that the old SCG&E will be DE by the first of 2012)!

Also after Progress Energy combines with DE, you have Levy county nuclear project and expansion at Harris in the licensing pipeline. I beileve the new Duke has an edge on Exelon.

[RTRT]

Hmmm. Maybe Exelon will buy into South Texas Units 3 & 4...

TEX,

Those Bastards!  They moved the Mason Dixon line.....Again!  Where to this time, I-10, I-20, I-40.....

I'm pretty sure I-40 is the new de facto  US border

You really hit the nail on the head with that one.

I agree....

I have it from a reliable source that all those "so-called sound barriers" along the highways are actually our new boarder wall.....
