Episode description
In this episode, we break down how nuclear power went from booming to stalled in the U.S., why fear-driven regulation and financing killed new reactors, and why the coming wave of AI data centers and electrification is putting nuclear back at the center of the energy conversation. We also explore small modular reactors, new U.S. and Saudi nuclear deals, DOE loan support, and the workforce and policy shifts needed to rebuild a modern, standardized nuclear industrial base.
