Brouillette: Nuclear should be part of California’s energy problem solution
Brouillette
In an op-ed published on September 25 in the Orange County Register, Energy Secretary Dan Brouillette decryed the state of California’s handling of its energy crisis.
Brouillette criticized state leaders for championing a 100 percent renewable energy plan that ignores nuclear and natural gas. He also found fault with the plan to prematurely close the Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant.
Plenary Session
Monday, June 8, 2020|9:00–11:30AM (10:00AM–12:30PM EDT)
10:00–11:30AM EDT
11:30AM–12:30PM EDT
This roundtable discussion will feature representatives from utilities awarded funding through DOE’s Light Water Reactor Sustainability Program to demonstrate hydrogen production at existing LWR plants in Ohio, Arizona, and Minnesota. The speakers will provide their perspectives on the first-of-a-kind projects that represent a significant opportunity to improve the long-term economic competitiveness of the current LWR fleet by providing experience and insights on the production of clean hydrogen in addition to electricity at operating nuclear power plants.
