Until approximately 2022, U.S. nuclear power plants were shutting down because they were more expensive to operate than sources like natural gas, wind, and solar.

Will Wade predicts the first small modular reactors (SMRs) are expected to come online in the early 2030s, with a possibility of a few operational before 2030.

According to a study, individuals exposed to the 1979 Three Mile Island accident received a radiation dose significantly less than that of a chest X-ray.

Many countries in Europe and Japan, which had moved away from nuclear power after the Fukushima disaster, have reversed their policies and are now embracing it again.

The 1979 accident at Three Mile Island led to heightened oversight and new safety policies that significantly slowed down the U.S. nuclear industry.

No deaths at the Fukushima nuclear disaster were caused by radiation exposure; fatalities were a result of flooding from the tsunami.

There have only been three major accidents in the history of the global nuclear power industry: Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, and Fukushima.

Germany is a notable exception among European nations and has not reversed its policy of phasing out nuclear power.

Studies show that on a per-terawatt-hour basis, coal and natural gas power generation result in significantly more deaths than nuclear power, even when including fatalities from the Chernobyl disaster...

The amount of radiation exposure for people near the Three Mile Island accident was significantly less than that from a standard chest X-ray.

The initial small modular reactors (SMRs) that are deployed are predicted to be expensive.

After being flat for approximately 20 years, power demand in the U.S. is now projected to rise significantly through 2030 and 2035.
