First new planned US nuclear reactors likely to get government loans, energy chief says
The first five or 10 new planned U.S. nuclear reactors
will “almost certainly” receive loans from the U.S. Energy Department’s
lending office, U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright told lawmakers in a
hearing on Thursday. President Donald Trump signed an executive order last
year calling for 10 new large nuclear reactors to be under construction
by 2030 and for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to speed reactor
approvals.
