X-energy and American Electric Power signed a joint development agreement on Oct. 19 to study a 12-unit Xe-100 plant near the retired Breed coal station in Sullivan County, Indiana. Amazon will provide milestone-based development funding and says it would be the first power customer if the plant is built; AEP says a long-term purchase would follow a final investment decision. The companies put the proposal at 960 MW and describe feasibility work, not a construction permit or a financed build.
