THAT'S IT? This is what 20 years worth of spent nuclear fuel looks like safely stored at the former Maine Yankee nuclear plant.
The energy produced from this fuel helped avoid 70 million metric tons of CO2 emissions.
VOGTLE, GEORGIA: US SECRETARY OF ENERGY CALLS FOR "HUNDREDS" MORE LARGE NUCLEAR REACTORS
"We need two hundred of these by 2050. Two down, one hundred and ninety-eight to go."
US Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm, speaking now in front of the flawlessly-operating Vogtle 3 & 4 nuclear reactors.
It's extraordinary that this is what Democrats now sound like on nuclear.
It's truly a bipartisan consensus that America needs to build way more nuclear power.
What do we mean when we say “clean energy for a growing Georgia”? With the completion of Plant Vogtle Units 3 & 4, Georgia is now home to the largest generator of clean energy in the nation. This state is open for business and our economy continues to grow and thrive! We’re ready to meet the energy needs of a growing Georgia.
Thank you to all of the elected officials, business & community leaders and employees who came out this week to celebrate this new generation source, expected to operate for at least 60 – 80 years! #unitedstates #Vogtle #PlantVogtle #EcconomicDevelopment #Georgia #GeorgiaPower #energy #goodenergy
Responding to growing demand, Duke Energy, @amazon, @Google, @Microsoft and Nucor execute agreements to accelerate clean energy options to help utilities serve the future energy needs of large businesses in North Carolina and South Carolina. Read more: https://t.co/eq8Oyo7udE.
Welcome to our newest commercially operating reactor and congratulations to @SouthernCompany for investing in #advancednuclear! Who’s building the next one in the U.S.? There’s no shortage of electricity demand.
