What are some futuristic possibilities for Nuclear Energy in the U.S.?
There were new plants that were set for construction, but the Japan earthquake changed that, and now many in the U.S. are calling for at least a temporary suspension on the development of new nuclear power plants.
No energy generation company in the United States is willing to construct a new nuclear power plant in the next 30 years and none have taken anything more than the preliminary steps towards purchasing and constructing a new nuclear plant. Although there has been no public oppositon towards the idea, building new plants is not beneficial to the state of our economy at this time due to costs.
