도입부: In this issue: The future of cleanup at legacy sites, DeWitte speaks on the state of the industry, Kazatomprom set to decrease uranium production, and more.From remediation to renaissance: Our nuclear future begins with cleanup
Eighty years after the Trinity Test launched the nuclear age, America is at the precipice of another pivotal moment. As artificial intelligence drives unprecedented energy demands and accelerates the commercial nuclear renaissance, our industry faces a critical question: How do we rapidly deploy the clean-energy capacity our nation needs? Read the full article from Ken Rueter and ANS President Hash Hashemian on Nuclear NewsWire.

Enthusiasm continued to trend upward in New Jersey last week as industry and government have rallied around the idea of new nuclear capacity in the state. Holtec executives spoke at a state legislative meeting on siting SMRs at the Oyster Creek nuclear plant site. Also present was the state’s Board of Public Utilities president, who talked about addressing high energy costs through SMRs. Elsewhere, U.S. Rep. and leading gubernatorial candidate Mikie Sherrill talked on the campaign trail about the potential for new nuclear. Go deeper on Nuclear NewsWire.
