The Electric Power Suppliers Association (EPSA), which overwhelmingly represents independent natural gas-fired electricity generators across the country, has petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to hear its challenge against subsidies for nuclear power plants in New York and Illinois.

Now that four courts in Illinois and New York have upheld subsidies for nuclear power plants, representatives of the natural gas interests battling them are looking to FERC for a prescription to counter the state programs and their effects on wholesale electricity markets.
