BREAKING: Buried on page 200 of Holtec's IPO prospectus, on file with the SEC since July 10 and amended Sept 8, is a line no one has reported: an eight-unit SMR-300 project at Indian Point, 2,720 megawatts. Order status: "Pending."

The footnote: "These projects are conditional on state and local support and subsequent arrangement of project financing." Palisades in Michigan is the only project marked "Firm." Indian Point has no target date.

Eight SMR-300s is four of the twin-unit plant pictured in the filing. By Holtec's own 37-acre figure, that's roughly 148 of the site's 239 acres, at a targeted three years to build each.

New Yorkers lost roughly 2,000 MW when Indian Point closed. Holtec is telling investors the site could come back bigger and better. Its listed conditions are New York's support, and investment.

The United States just powered its first hydrogen electrolyzer from a nuclear plant — connecting a 50-megawatt electrolyzer at the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Station in Minnesota to the plant's existing output, producing green hydrogen around the clock from zero-carbon nuclear electricity and delivering it to industrial customers in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul region who have been waiting for commercially viable hydrogen supply for a decade.

The Xcel Energy Prairie Island Nuclear Hydrogen Project, developed under the US Department of Energy's Clean Hydrogen Hub program, installs a 50-megawatt proton exchange membrane electrolyzer at the Prairie Island plant site, drawing electricity directly from the nuclear generator output and producing 1,000 kilograms of green hydrogen per hour — approximately 8,700 tonnes annually — for delivery to regional industrial customers including steel reheating furnaces, ammonia production, and fuel cell bus fleet operations across the Twin Cities metropolitan area.

Nuclear's advantage for hydrogen production is maximum electrolyzer utilisation. Solar-powered electrolyzers operate at 20% to 35% utilisation — limited by daylight hours and weather. Wind-powered electrolyzers achieve 35% to 45% utilisation. Prairie Island's nuclear-powered electrolyzer runs at 90% utilisation year-round — the 10% downtime attributable to planned maintenance — producing hydrogen at a capital cost per kilogram that is 40% to 50% lower than equivalent solar or wind-powered systems at the same production volume.

The commercial hydrogen supply to Twin Cities industry validates the regional hydrogen economy concept that has been theoretical for twenty years. Prairie Island's hydrogen is the first commercial-scale zero-carbon hydrogen supply in the Upper Midwest.

America's oldest nuclear plant is making the newest fuel. Prairie Island chose hydrogen.
