HARTFORD — A bill that environmentalists and consumer advocates charged would allow the Millstone nuclear power plant the ability to compete with renewable sources of power, was signed into law Tuesday by Gov. Dannel P. Malloy, following its passage last week in the Legislature. But Malloy said that he endorsed the bill with the “hopes” that Dominion Energy, the owner of the nuclear station, cooperates with the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection and the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority in researching its financial viability. “The importance of this asset to both the state and the region cannot be overstated. If we are to realize the goals set out by this legislation, there is more work to be done,” Malloy said.
