"there will be power, we will always figure out the ways to do it" The new nuclear power plant has been open in the US and there are plans to reactive old nuclear plants too. This is an important news for the conversation about power concerns for the growing number of data centers and energy used by AI. #nuclearpowerplant #datacenterpower
“Nuclear’s Make or Break Moment” Important CNBC coverage. My take: The passage of ADVANCE Act through Congress by a 481-15 vote signals a new chapter for American nuclear. While nuclear construction projects are challenging to initiate, we must listen to the energy communities, state legislators, environmental activists and engineering professionals about the urgency of this window. Over the 80+ year useful life of these new reactors, nuclear energy emerges as the least expensive and most reliable source of clean power available. By investing in large light water reactors today, we can secure our energy future and unlock the momentum needed to scale American nuclear efforts with our allies around the world. It’s time to build. Yes, large construction projects are hard. Thankfully, nuclear fission is simple. America can create a sustainable and prosperous future, while guarding our grid and securing our legacy.
