Palisades is Off Line

Palisades is currently not connected to the Michigan electric grid. The disconnection happened Friday afternoon just before 5:00. Officials say a pro-active and conservative decision was made to remove Palisades from service for repair work, following several days of troubleshooting the plant's component cooling water heat exchanger system. Other electrical repairs are being made as well. Once all repairs are complete, Palisades will return to service.
