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. Hochul signed an agreement with Ontario Premier Doug Ford to collaborate on new nuclear development, Ontario Power Generation (OPG) signed a memorandum of understanding with the NYPA, and New York finalized its 2025 energy plan.

High-power experiments with waves in the ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF) have been performed on the DIII-D tokamak since 1988. In the course of these experiments, it has been necessary to carry out some development of the relevant technology. These developments, primarily in the areas of the plasma/antenna interface, high-power transmission line components, and transmission line configurations, are reviewed in this paper. They have led to a number of recommendations for specifying systems in next-generation tokamaks.
