Congress passes new nuclear funding
On January 15, in an 82–14 vote, the U.S. Senate passed an Energy and Water Development appropriations bill to fund the U.S. Department of Energy for fiscal year 2026 as part of a broader package that also funded the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation.
Since 1911, PowerLabs has continually provided customers quality calibrations and testing. First established under the Philadelphia Electric Company’s testing section, we have since grown and expanded our laboratory capabilities not only in metrology but in testing and analysis over the last half century. Today, PowerLabs is the primary calibration and testing laboratory for Constellation. We have labs strategically located from the upper-Midwest to the Northeast to better support the urgent demands of quality driven industries.
We maintain both A2LA Accreditations for ISO 17025 calibrations and Appendix B calibrations, assuring our technical competence as a laboratory. Many of the listed parameters and ranges here are accredited. Please see our Scope of Accreditation for each of our sites on our website. As an Approved Nuclear Supplier, we adhere to strict code requirements including 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, NQA-1 and ANSI N45.2. These guidelines are the basis for which we have built our Quality Program.
