We have a big issue here with the Joliet data center that essentially, you know, ComEd is saying they want a line of credit worth $587 million to make sure that this data center is going to operate, and then maybe then they'll connect them to the grid, but it's going to be at a premium.

Brad AdamsGUEST
As I stated earlier, I moved up the chain.
Brad AdamsGUEST
I started with Commonwealth Edison, which ended up becoming Unicom, Exelon, now Constellation, which is the largest nuclear utility in the country.
Brad AdamsGUEST
But I moved up the chain because of what I was able to accomplish personally.
Brad AdamsGUEST
And I always had a philosophy of kind of two things.

Crane's John Pletz joins me to share the backstory.
John PletzGUEST
Now, what happened was ComEd, you know, pulled the plug on their agreement, which prevents them from moving forward.

John PletzGUEST
So they said, we're going to post a $1

Wow.

speaker_1HOST
And we know that ComEd, they weren't on call in the ocean in the 1850s.
speaker_1HOST
We are told that they were using whale oil and kerosene.
speaker_1HOST
to keep these lights powered, which I do believe is true.
