Westinghouse Faces $2.5 Billion Suit Bundle
Ten utilities including Lilco and Houston Lighting challenge Westinghouse Electric in U.S. District Court over contracts to supply uranium. The multi‑billion suit contends Westinghouse reneged on about 80 million pounds of uranium at roughly $11 a pound as prices rose to $40. The case, before Judge Merhige, could reshape utility rates for millions.
