Exelon Statement on DOJ and FERC Filing in Illinois Future Energy Jobs Act Lawsuit
Exelon Corporation issued the following statement in response to the U.S. Department of Justice and Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission’s filing in the lawsuit challenging Illinois’ Future Energy Jobs Act:
“Today the U.S. Department of Justice and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission told the courts that states are free to favor
clean nuclear energy over pollution-emitting energy from coal, oil and natural gas power plants. We remain confident that the
courts will uphold the view of policymakers and regulators who support the continued operation of Illinois’ nuclear plants and the
environmental benefits they provide for consumers.”
