Exelon Subsidiary Denied Tax Breaks On Three Mile Island Purchase

Exelon Subsidiary Denied Tax Breaks On Three Mile Island Purchase

I found it interesting that AmerGen when it spent its $93 million got essentially a bag of money nearly ten times as large along with the nuclear power plants.  There is that nasty decommissioning exposure, but that’s in the far, far future.
