The license for unit 1 has been extended to 2042; the license for Unit 2 hasbeen extended to 2044. Unit 2 ended a PPL record of 723 days of continuous generation when it shut down forrefueling and maintenance in April 2009. The combined facility output is 2,465 MW. PPL owns 90 percent.Note 2: PJM has notified Exelon that with the completion of scheduled transmission system upgrades, Cromby Unit1 and Eddystone Unit 1 will not be needed for reliability and can be deactivated on the proposed date of May 31,2011. The retirement of Cromby Unit 2 and Eddystone Unit 2 could, however, result in reliability impacts.Although they are no longer economical to operate, Exelon plans to continue operating the units beyond theirdeactivation dates, during the completion of additional transmission system upgrades.88<strong>Pennsylvania</strong> <strong>Public</strong> <strong>Utility</strong> <strong>Commission</strong>
