This has to do with the VIPSC permitting the sale of Innovative to the CFC at below market value. Supposedly hush money to the PSC ... and others in ...

FYI, the 4th generation Westinghouse reactors for AP-1000 and SMR use passive cooling (no mechanical systems) during an emergency trip. Operations an...
Who said anything about WAPA running a Nuc? That would be crazy. We need a real utility to step in that has Nuc experience AND has all the approved ...
But did any of the citizenry ever think about all the Nuc's that around our islands as we speak? They're called US Navy Submarines. A lot of testing...

Some Info on LNG. I knew it had to be liquefied by refrigeration, but never realized they need to keep it at -260F. That would freeze your toes for ...
Well Lucy- It seems as though you use some standard terms. Are you a Power Engineer? I am. Currently I base all my calcs and figures as follows: (Reme...
And how will the LNG be transported to The VI? Who will supply? Will WAPA also convert? If WAPA converts (and pay's their fair share) and the suppl...
This is based on spot prices listed on Bloomberg today. NG = $3 per MMBTU and Fuel Oil = $3 per gallon. Assume that buying in bulk lowers the pr...
