Nuclear waste and decommissioning developments

24/7 Nuclear Energy News Coverage

July 03, 2014
Dear Colleague,

Earlier this month the House Appropriations Committee reconfirmed its support for the Yucca Mountain nuclear waste facility by pledging another $205m to the long-delayed program.

However, with $billions already spent on Yucca Mountain, alternative sites coming to the fore and a rise in early NPP shutdowns increasing the need for ISFSIs to hold spent fuel indefinitely, the back-end of the nuclear lifecycle is facing more scrutiny than ever before.

To bring you up to speed on all critical nuclear waste and decommissioning developments, take a look at this complimentary industry analysis report here.

Let me know if you have any feedback!
