New York takes two more steps toward nuclear
In 2025, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul was a vocal supporter of new nuclear development in the state. In October, she called on the New York Power Authority (NYPA)—the state’s public electric utility—to add 1 GW of new nuclear.
At the tail end of December, New York made more nuclear progress on three fronts.
