      Oklo claims PJM improperly dropped its Virginia project

      Last Friday, Oklo filed an emergency request with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission claiming that one of its potential generation projects has been “unjustifiably withdrawn” from the PJM Interconnection queue. Through that request, Oklo has asked FERC to direct PJM to reinstate its application with its original queue position.

      In an interesting twist, the project at issue in this interconnection dispute was, until now, unknown to the public.
