Description:==
Nine Mile Point 1 and 2 are sited near Oswego, New York. The 900-acre site is also occupied by the Fitzpatrick nuclear plant. Nine Mile Point 1 is one of the Nation's two oldest reactors still in service (it is mentioned in the unique reactors feature elsewhere on this site).
Ownership: Nine Mile Point is operated by Constellation Nuclear. Unit 1 is owned entirely by Constellation Energy Group which shares ownership of unit 2 with the Long Island Power Authority (18 percent, LIPA, 82 percent, Contellation).

G Highlights G Nuclear-provided Electricity Generation G Competition in the State Electricity Market G Environmental Trends: Emissions levels G Various Links to related sites.
Sources: Capacity, for purposes of this report, is the net summer capability as reported in Energy Information Administration (EIA) survey form 860, "Annual Electric Generator Report." Capacity Factor is a calculation in which the maximum possible generation (based on net summer capability) is divided into the actual generation than multiplied by 100 to get a percentage. Generation is the electricity output reported by plant owners on EIA survey form 906. Type of Unit: All U.S. commercial reactors currently in operation are one of two types: BWR (boiling water reactor) or PWR (pressurized light water reactor).
The type is identified in EIA's Nuclear Power Generation and Fuel Cycle Report. Both the On-line Date and the License Expiration Date are reported annually in Information Digest by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
