Dan Eggers, Constellation CFO, accepts Platts Deal of the Year Award for Crane Restart
“We’re very proud of our team’s tireless work to make the Crane restart possible. This project will create more than 3,000 jobs, add over $16 billion to Pennsylvania’s GDP, and generate more than $3 billion in community supporting taxes,” saidDan Eggers, Constellation Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “This award demonstrates the transformative impact of working together with partners like Microsoft and Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro to meet the region’s growing energy needs and put 835 MWs of clean, reliable power back on the grid at a critical time.”
Through a 20-year power purchase agreement, Microsoft will utilize the 835 MW of emissions-free reliable energy that the Crane Clean Energy Center will produce to help match its PJM data centers’ power use and to contribute grid capacity and reliability. A top-performing plant until its retirement in 2019, Crane’s restart will deliver unmatched environmental and economic benefits.
