March 14 (Reuters) – Centrica Plc (CNA.L) said on Tuesday it planned to extend the lives of two nuclear power stations, which it expects would add 6 terawatt hours to its electricity generation volumes between 2024 and 2026.

The British Gas-owner said the Heysham 1 and Hartlepool stations are expected to close in March 2026, two years later than previously forecast.
