Constellation (Nasdaq: CEG) and GridBeyond have partnered to launch an innovative AI-powered demand response (DR) program in PJM, aimed at helping business customers reduce energy costs during peak demand periods. The collaboration leverages GridBeyond's predictive analytics platform to optimize energy usage and enhance grid flexibility.

According to a Duke University study, if large energy users reduced consumption by just 0.25%, the U.S. could accommodate 76 gigawatts of additional energy consumption without new power plants, equivalent to 127 combined cycle gas plants. The average curtailment duration would be only 1.7 hours per year.

The program features advanced capabilities including real-time grid data, automated systems, and sub-meter level load isolation, offering businesses unprecedented opportunities to participate in grid-balancing services while minimizing operational disruption.

Constellation (CEG) and Meta have signed a landmark 20-year power purchase agreement for 1,121 megawatts of nuclear energy from the Clinton Clean Energy Center, starting June 2027. The deal ensures the plant's continued operation after Illinois' ZEC program expires, while expanding clean energy output by 30 megawatts through uprates. The agreement preserves 1,100 jobs, secures $13.5 million in annual tax revenue, and includes $1 million in charitable giving over five years. The Clinton facility, which powers 800,000 homes, was previously at risk of closure in 2017 due to financial losses. Meta's partnership provides a market-based solution replacing the state's ratepayer support, while supporting their AI operations and 100% clean energy commitment. Constellation is also exploring advanced nuclear reactor development at the site. The Brattle Group analysis showed that closing Clinton would have increased emissions by 34 million metric tons over 20 years and reduced Illinois' GDP by $765 million annually.
