Former Exelon CEO Chris Crane remembered for “transformational milestones”
Crane
Exelon announced that Chris Crane, the company’s former chief executive, passed away on Saturday in Chicago at the age of 65.
Crane served as the company’s president and CEO from 2012 until his retirement in December 2022. During his tenure, he steered the energy company through several transformational milestones, including the successful mergers with Constellation Energy in 2012 and Pepco Holdings in 2016, creating the largest utility business by customer count in the United States.
In 2022, with the spin-off of Constellation as the generation and retail side of energy business (with the largest U.S. nuclear fleet), Crane led the creation of a stand-alone transmission and delivery energy company.

A Conceptual Design Activity (CDA) for the International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility (IFMIF) will be completed in December 1996. The IFMIF accelerator system, comprising two 125 mA, 40 MeV deuterium accelerators is a key element of the IFMIF facility. This paper describes the status of the accelerator design as of June, 1996.
