UCAN Power - United Coalition for Advanced Nuclear Power’s Post

Wow! recent agreements by technology companies to lock up clean, reliable nuclear power for data centers are sending shockwaves for those of us concerned about the ability of our country's energy sector/grids to meet our exploding demand for electricity. We need to quickly add more nuclear power generation throughout the national grid (in addition to other sources) to maintain stability and to protect life. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission must support this urgent national need by developing a comprehensive safety license process for advanced reactors which are engineered and fueled for safety and easier deployment.

Senior defense leaders delivered strong messages on June 26 on the future of nuclear power to meet DOD energy resilience and sustainment goals at the Nuclear Energy Security Summit, “Securing the Future of Nuclear Energy in a Contested Environment.” The Air Force’s Deputy Assistant Secretary, Nancy J Balkus, and Navy DASN Michael McGhee, SES, PE, SCO’s Project Pele lead Jeff Waksman, and the Army’s Annie Kammerer. Chief, Nuclear Power Branch at the Office of the Chief of Engineers. KEY UPDATES – In future conflict with peer adversaries marked by the threat of cyber attacks, a contested logistics and energy environment starts here in the Homeland at our military bases. The Air Force is “all in” on nuclear power projects including and beyond the Alaska demonstration project. The Navy will be issuing a Request for Information targeted around October 2024, seeking creative concepts to explore siting privately-owned, NRC-licensed nuclear reactors at Navy and USMC installation to supply military and community power needs. The Army ‘s offering with the DOD Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) resulted in an overwhelmingly positive response from over 40 vendors. Project Pele for the development of a portable, modular reactor is progressing well with full congressional support. Each Service wants to partner with nuclear reactor developers and utilities to deliver reliable power for critical national security missions. Overall – excellent news from DOD coming during the UCAN power event! Please share with your nuclear network Brian McCormack Jim Howe Jeffrey "Jeff" C. Crater L.
