Energy Realism last week focused on energy policy and why the nuclear revolution must simply be forced to succeed. 

Tim Benson got us started last week: the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC)’s draft model legislation, which bills itself as a “common sense energy agenda for the future,” has now become official model policy. The Affordable, Reliable and Clean Energy Security Act (Energy Security-ARC) states: “Energy Security is paramount to economic growth. Energy Security that is Affordable, Reliable, and Clean leads to prosperity for our families and communities.” The legislation was drafted by ALEC’s Energy, Environment and Agriculture Task Force. And Robert G. Eccles agrees that nuclear must be at the core of our mission. The nuclear energy industry encompasses a range of options, from the more traditional plants like Vogtle and Three Mile Island to SMR-based solutions that vary in technology and fuel and are at a range of stages of development. It is no surprise that technology companies are at the forefront of adoption. Finally then, and to the point, let’s revisit our Energy Future Forum from June. Jacob DeWitte looks at the future of tiny nukes. More economical, convenient, agile, and practical, these babies must indeed become a central focus to meet our energy and climate goals.
