FirstEnergy Corporation Nuclear Decommissioning Trust manages $6.94 billion for nuclear site remediation in Akron, Ohio.
FirstEnergy Corporation Nuclear Decommissioning Trust
The trust was established in 1944 to meet eventual decommissioning costs at FirstEnergy nuclear sites. It functions as a dedicated investment vehicle whose assets cannot be used for general corporate purposes. The portfolio allocates to public equities, US government and municipal bonds, and private equity and hedge fund commitments. Confirmed holdings include a 50.1 percent stake in FirstEnergy Transmission, LLC alongside Brookfield Infrastructure Partners. Geographic exposure centers on the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic service territory plus global alternatives accessed through external managers. BlackRock serves as investment advisor and State Street acts as custodian. The trust maintains membership in the Edison Electric Institute and Nuclear Energy Institute. November 2024 attendance at the EEI Financial Conference marked its most recent disclosed industry event. Assets are legally separated from FirstEnergy Corp operating subsidiaries, creating a governance structure that isolates decommissioning funds from utility cash-flow pressures.
