The Palisades nuclear power plant in Covert Township will be sold as part of its decommissioning process. Entergy says that plant and its Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station in Plymouth, Massachusetts are going to be sold to Holtec International. The sale is expected to speed up the decommissioning of both facilities. Pilgrim is scheduled to shut down next year, and Entergy says Palisades will continue operating until 2022.
