This achievement confirms the successful operation of key turbine auxiliary systems and represents another significant step in preparing the plant's power generation equipment for operation.

Palisades was pleased to welcome U.S. Rep. Bill Huizenga and Congressman Scott Peters for a site visit and update on the historic Palisades restart.

During their visit, Representatives Huizenga and Peters toured the facility and viewed firsthand the work underway to return Palisades to safe and reliable operation. Discussions focused on energy reliability, workforce development, economic growth, and the role nuclear energy plays in meeting America's growing electricity needs.

We appreciate the Bipartisan Policy Center for helping foster constructive dialogue on issues important to communities across the country.

Our parent company, Holtec International, has been named by TIME as one of the 10 most influential energy companies—and a leader in nuclear. The future of nuclear is happening now—and Palisades is proud to be part of it.

Holtec International is proud to be recognized by TIME as one of the 10 most influential companies in the energy industry, and one of only two leading the nuclear sector alongside NextEra.

As global energy demand grows, nuclear is making a powerful comeback and Holtec is at the forefront. Our work to restart Michigan’s Palisades plant will mark a historic milestone as the first U.S. nuclear facility to return to service after decommissioning.

With major modifications complete, we’re moving closer to reconnecting Palisades to the grid this year, demonstrating the strength of our fully integrated capabilities across engineering, construction, licensing, and beyond.

The future of nuclear energy is being written now and Holtec is helping lead the way.
