Nuclear PTC

As a result of the enactment of the IRA, we qualify for certain federal government incentives through eligible activities. These incentives include both refundable and transferable tax credits. Beginning in 2024, our nuclear units are eligible for a PTC extending through 2032. The nuclear PTC provides a transferable credit up to $15 per MWh (a base credit of $3 per MWh with a five times multiplier provided certain prevailing wage requirements are met) and is subject to phase-out when annual gross receipts are between $25.00 per MWh and $43.75 per MWh. We have determined that we will meet the annual prevailing wage requirements at all our nuclear units and are eligible for the five times multiplier. Both the amount of the PTC and the gross receipts thresholds adjust annually for inflation over the duration of the program, and the benefits of the PTC may be realized through a credit against our federal income taxes or transferred via sale to an unrelated party. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income include an estimate of $408 million and $712 million, respectively, in Operating revenues for nuclear PTC earned based on qualifying production volumes during the respective periods. See Note 5 — Government Assistance of the Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
