The Georgia Nuclear Energy Financing Act of 2009 allowed utilities to recover costs of financing nuclear plant construction if approved by the PSC. The law gave the PSC the power to authorize accounting treatment for the recovered costs, allowing the PSC to consider the utilities entire balance sheet and require profits from projects other than the nuclear facility to offset costs of the current project before the utility is reimbursed for costs. The law was repealed in 2018 through SB 355.
