Southern Nuclear

Southern Nuclear operates eight nuclear units at three facilities - Plant Vogtle, Plant Hatch and Plant Farley - for Alabama Power and Georgia Power, generating carbon-free electricity for millions of homes and businesses across the southeastern United States. Headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama, the company has more than 50 years of operating experience and employs thousands of professionals, among them engineers, control room operators, chemists and security officers.

Its most substantial recent asset is Plant Vogtle in Georgia, where Units 3 and 4 were the first newly constructed nuclear units to reach commercial operation in the United States in 30 years. The four-unit site is the largest generator of clean energy in the country. Southern Nuclear has also been first to deploy Accident Tolerant Fuels, a development in nuclear fuel technology, and the company has won more than ten consecutive Top Innovative Practice Awards for its work.

The technical work spans nuclear power generation, nuclear fuel innovation, plant operations and safety, and environmental stewardship. Southern Nuclear states that it is dedicated to the highest standards of safety, reliability and environmental stewardship across its fleet.
