The US is experiencing a nuclear energy renaissance with renewed support and investment across many states. Following decades of neglect, 25 states have passed legislation to promote advanced nuclear energy, and more than 200 related bills have been introduced this year. Public opinion toward nuclear power is also improving, with 56% of adults supporting its expansion. The focus is shifting from large reactors to innovative small modular reactors (SMRs), designed to be safer and more cost-effective, marking a new era in nuclear technology development.
"They're smaller and should be easier to make..." - Nuclear energy experts emphasize the promise of small modular reactors (SMRs) in revolutionizing the future of nuclear energy.
"Utah Sen. Stuart Adams bragged that he wants Utah to be the nation's nuclear hub..." - States are actively competing to lead in advanced nuclear power, investing millions in nuclear initiatives.
