Get up to speed
The Nuclear Company (TNC) announced on October 21, 2026, plans for the Prosperity One nuclear power plant campus along the Ohio River in Lewis County, Kentucky. The site is reserved for up to six Westinghouse AP1000 reactors, with a total installed capacity of approximately 6.6 GW upon completion, which would surpass Georgia's four-unit Vogtle nuclear power plant to become the largest nuclear power plant in the United States. The first phase of the project plans to build two units, and TNC plans to start construction in 2028 after obtaining federal approval. Currently, the project has not submitted any applications to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) or PJM, nor has it disclosed project cost estimates, financing plans, or ownership. TNC stated that it is negotiating power purchase agreements and expects to reach relevant deals next year.
