CSNA Open Letter
April 7, 2021
Dear Governor Hogan,
With the passage of the Climate Solutions Now Act of 2022, Maryland is on track to become a principal voice in the advancement of U.S. clean energy. Our coalition of labor, businesses, and advocacy groups is as diverse as the energy needs of Maryland, and we recognize the need to prepare Maryland for the energy future, support economic growth, and preserve the health and environment of communities in Maryland. We thank the Maryland General Assembly for meaningfully recognizing the key role of carbon-free nuclear in meeting the state’s goal of a 60% reduction in GHG emissions by 2031. With your signature, Marylanders can find comfort knowing its leaders are prioritizing safe, clean, and reliable energy sources like nuclear, and looking out for the health and prosperity of Maryland residents.

Environmental and Economic Impacts of the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Plant
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
BRATTLE GROUP FINDS CONTINUED OPERATION OF CALVERT CLIFFS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT IS CRITICAL TO MEETING MARYLAND’S CLEAN ENERGY TARGETS COST-EFFECTIVELY
Media Contact: Jason Martin, Finsbury Glover Hering, [email protected]
BALTIMORE (March 28, 2022) – Today, the Brattle Group released the findings from a study of the environmental and economic impacts of the Calvert Cliffs nuclear plant in Maryland, prepared for Nuclear Powers Maryland. The report found that Calvert Cliffs prevents 4 million tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and keeps electricity prices $47 million lower for Maryland energy consumers, each year. Without Calvert Cliffs, significantly less emission-free power would be generated in Maryland, resulting in the increased need for fossil generation and higher emissions, even after accounting for Maryland’s commitments to increase its renewable generation.

Nuclear Powers Maryland Statement on Proposed Climate Solutions Act of 2022
“It’s time for the Maryland General Assembly to recognize the value of carbon-free nuclear energy in meeting the state’s ambitious climate goals. As proposed, the Climate Solutions Act of 2022 does not even consider the integral role that safe, reliable and clean nuclear energy, which provides 80 percent of the state’s carbon-free energy, plays in meeting the proposed GHG reduction goals. Failure to account for nuclear’s vital contribution in a Greenhouse Gas Reduction Plan is a failure to recognize that, without nuclear, Maryland will fall far short of the proposed legislation’s goal to reach net zero emissions by 2045 and 60% GHG emissions reductions by 2030. As a coalition of labor, businesses large and small, and advocacy groups around the state, we stand ready to work with the General Assembly to ensure the state’s climate goals can be met.”
