In 2014, David Conti reported that Westinghouse Electric Co. has an inside track on providing two of its new reactors for a proposed nuclear power plant in Utah. The Cranberry company and Orem, Utah-based developer Blue Castle Holdings on Wednesday announced they will exclusively negotiate a deal to partner on the project. Blue Castle wants to use the Westinghouse AP1000 reactors and potentially a modified version for earthquake-prone areas in its applications for permits and licenses to build at the Green River site. The project has won several regulatory battles but is four or five years from receiving any licenses to start building. Westinghouse has eight AP1000 reactors under construction- four in China, two in Georgia and two in South Carolina. It also signed agreements in the past few months to build in the United Kingdom and Bulgaria.
