Restoring U.s. Leadership in Nuclear Energy - A National Security Imperative

Informationen zum Autor The CSIS Commission on Nuclear Energy in the United States is made up of senior public and private sector officials from across the political spectrum who agree that nuclear energy is an important part of this country's energy mix and that the United States is losing ground as other countries proceed with planned expansions of their nuclear sectors. Klappentext America's nuclear energy industry is in decline. Low natural gas prices, financing hurdles, failure to find a permanent repository for high-level nuclear waste, reactions to the Fukushima accident in Japan, and other factors are hastening the day when existing U.S. reactors become uneconomic. The decline of the U.S. nuclear energy industry could be much more rapid than policy makers and stakeholders anticipate.
