In response to recent reporting by @TexasTribune regarding Fermi’s Board of Directors, we want to clarify that Governor Rick Perry has not been removed from Fermi’s Board of Directors.

While much of the industry is working to secure future access to generation equipment, Fermi already owns critical power generation assets that…
