CPS Energy

CPS Energy and Constellation Energy will each own 42% of the South Texas Nuclear Project.

San Antonio’s municipal utility will acquire three plants totaling 1,710 MW as it plans to retire other dispatchable units.

San Antonio’s municipal utility says the three natural gas-fired units at the Braunig plant are “nearing their operational end of life.”

The FlexPOWER Bundle initiative aims to further diversify CPS Energy’s power generation mix, adding up to 900 MW of solar, up to 50 MW of energy storage and up to 500 MW of firming capacity.

San Antonio-based CPS Energy signed a 15-year commercial agreement with Quidnet Energy for a 1 MW, 10-hour energy storage facility using geomechanical pumped storage technology. Following initial deployment, the municipal utility has the option to expand the project to 15 MW. The technology is based on conventional drilling technology used in the oil and gas industry as well as off-the-shelf
