The past few years have seen a concerted effort from many U.S. states to encourage nuclear development. The momentum behind nuclear-friendly policies has grown considerably, with many states repealing moratoriums, courting nuclear developers and suppliers, and in some cases creating advisory groups and road maps to push deployment of new nuclear reactors.

Talking about Nuclear Energy with the Next Administration: Regardless of which candidate wins election to the U.S. presidency in November, the incoming administration will be different than the current one – either in degrees or perhaps more dramatically. There will be different cabinet members, different senior political appointees, and some different members of Congress. Either way, proponents of nuclear energy will have a challenge in educating policy makers about the importance of nuclear energy and of maintaining or even adding to the funding for nuclear energy research and development. In this panel, we’ll discuss the issues, the challenges, and strategies for ANS success.
