May 2007 Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant Earns a Place in History Located about an hour south of Washington, D.C., Constellation Energys Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant is an important part of Constellation Energys generation fleet. The Constellation Energy team operates two nuclear reactors at Calvert Cliffs, generating about 1,700 megawatts of electricity each day - enough power for a third of Marylands homes and businesses. In many ways, Calvert Cliffs has earned a place in nuclear energy history.
