One Big Happy Nuclear Family
The U.S. nuclear power industry said yesterday that it produced more power in the year 2000 than ever before. The announcement came just one week after Sen. Pete Domenici (R-N.M.) introduced a bill to spur more use of nuclear energy in the U.S., celebrating what he termed a “safe and environmentally clean fuel.” In other nuke news, Russia gave the thumbs up yesterday to a plan to build a floating nuclear power plant on the White Sea. And China said it would move forward with plans to build several new nuclear power plants in its coastal provinces.
