CHICAGO ( Aug. 4 , 2021 ) — Exelon Corporation ( Nasdaq : EXC ) today reported its financial results for the second quarter of 2021 . " Ongoing investments in technology and infrastructure continue to drive high reliability and customer satisfaction across our six utilities , and today we announced a new ' path to clean ' goal that will put Exelon utilities on course to achieve net - zero emissions from operations by 2050 , " said Christopher Crane , president and CEO of Exelon . " We also are encouraged to see growing support at the federal level for policies that would value the clean energy from our nuclear fleet , but passage of legislation remains uncertain and , regardless , will come too late to save our Byron and Dresden plants from early retirement this fall . While we remain hopeful that a state solution will pass in time to save the plants , clean energy legislation in Illinois remains caught in negotiations over unrelated policy matters , leaving us no choice but to continue down the path of closing the plants . Looking ahead , we continue to execute our plan to separate our utility and generation businesses into two financially strong , independent companies , and we remain on track to close in the first quarter of 2022.
