In a dissenting statement, Phillips argued the deal with Amazon 'represents a 'first of its kind' co-located load configuration' and that Friday's decision is a 'step backward for both electric reliability and national security.'

Amazon purchased a 960-megawatt data center next to the Susquehanna power plant for $650 million earlier this year.
