Nuclear power is the ideal carbon-free, 24/7/365 partner to wind turbines, solar panels and energy storage in meeting the Biden administration’s goal to decarbonize our electricity system by 2035 and rebuild the economy.
Nuclear Energy Priorities
If you care about the climate, we must make nuclear the carbon-free core of our clean energy system. These policies, executive actions, and funding opportunities will unlock the potential of nuclear.
Policy Priorities
Action is required on several fronts to ensure that the existing U.S. nuclear fleet is sustained, that more plants are built at home, and that U.S. companies can compete aggressively against Russia and China and win more nuclear power plant contracts overseas. The actions outlined will enable the U.S. to retain its high-paying nuclear power jobs while developing new technologies that will support further job creation.
