The U.S. Senate passed a key bill to support the nuclear energy sector with an 88-2 vote, sending it to President Biden. The bill aims to expedite the approval of new nuclear plants, reduce licensing fees, and enhance the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s review process. It also supports the development of small modular reactors. While many support the bill, some, like Sen. Bernie Sanders and nuclear safety advocates, criticize it for potentially compromising safety standards. The bill was combined with a reauthorization of U.S. Fire Administration programs, and it passed the House with a 393-13-1 vote. Nuclear power, currently providing 20% of U.S. electricity, has been seen as key for both energy security and emissions reduction.
