Biden administration sets out plan to triple nuclear power capacity
The Biden administration on Tuesday released a roadmap for plans to triple U.S. nuclear capacity by the middle of the century.
The plan sets a goal of 200 gigawatts of new capacity by 2050, more than three times the 2020 capacity. This will require the development of multiple new power sources, including large and small-modular plants as well as upgrades to existing reactors and restarting retired ones. This includes adding 35 gigawatts of new capacity by 2035 and a goal of 15 gigawatts a year by 2040.
