ICYMI: News Roundup
Capitol Hill may be quiet as Congress is out
campaigning before Election Day, but it's been a big week for nuclear in
the media. Here's a roundup of the most important stories:
- Google issued a report
about moving to 100% carbon-free electricity for its data centers that
specifically mentions nuclear as an important piece of that puzzle,
particularly in North Carolina, Finland, and Taiwan.
- Several Senators called on the administration
to halt talks with Saudi Arabia regarding a potential civil nuclear
export agreement in the wake of journalist Jamal Kashoggi's murder.
- Secretary of Energy Rick Perry clarified that
the White House still supports the Yucca Mountain project after Trump
suggested he is considering withdrawing support last weekend. Perry
stated, "I'm going to follow the law. And the law says, 'here are the
things you're going to do.' Those have to be funded."
