Edison International Research Report

On November 13, 2013, Edison International reported that its subsidiary, Southern California Edison (SCE) has released a white paper demonstrating that its decision in June to permanently shut down the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS) in light of the failure of the replacement steam generators provided by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (Mitsubishi) was an appropriate cost-mitigation measure. Commenting on this decision, SCE President Ron Litzinger said, "Once we decided to shut down SONGS due to the circumstances created by the failed replacement steam generators, we were able to significantly reduce costs. This paper shows that these cost savings were greater than the benefits that could have been achieved by continuing to work toward returning SONGS to service, given the uncertainty about if and when SONGS would have been allowed to restart. We believe this white paper presents an opportunity to thoroughly answer any remaining questions about why we shut down the plant when we did and why it was the best option for customers."
