Amazon signed a 20-year power purchase agreement with Constellation Energy to expand nuclear power generation at the Calvert Cliffs plant in Maryland. A Goldman Sachs report revealed that the total capacity of the deal is 690 MW, providing the certainty needed to pursue a 20-year license extension for the facility.
