Point Beach Nuclear Generating Station

Point Beach Nuclear Generating Station

Point Beach Nuclear Generating Station is a former WE Energies-built nuclear power plant, located north of Two Rivers, Wisconsin, USA.

The plant is currently owned by the FPL Group, which closed on purchase of the plant in October 2007 and is operated by the Nuclear Management Company.

In December, 2006, an agreement was reached to sell the plant to a subsidiary of the FPL Group of Juno Beach, Florida. As part of the sale, WE Energies will repurchase all of the power produced by the plant for at least 20 years. From 2000-2007, the plant was managed by the Nuclear Management Company.

This plant has two Westinghouse pressurized water reactors. There is also a visitors' center located at the Point Beach site.

Most of the power from this plant goes to the Green Bay area and communities along the Lake Michigan shorline of Southeastern Wisconsin.
