They recognize we have the sensational need for energy. We're not going backwards in our energy consumption. So if we're going to have new energy

generation has to be clean energy.

Delivery of fuel are a clear vulnerability. Natural gas obviously can hold an entire nation hostage.

The typical construction timeline is really like 6 to 15 years on the big reactors right now.

Maybe nuclear energy is a lot safer than we actually originally realized.

The radiation exposure from living next to a coal plant is higher than the radiation exposure from living next to a nuclear power plant. We can reduce the radiation.

the radiation. The really exciting thing for me is that really far into the scale of

the portal micro reactors, we haven't really achieved that yet.

And you could actually produce these in a factory because they're portable

you can do mass production. 10 or 15 years from now the idea that we can't just

immediately turn on a reliable and enduring power source for a community it's gonna be

unimaginable if it will going to be unimaginable.

It will be a solved problem.

What might surprise some people to learn

is that nuclear energy accounts for 20%

of the electricity in the United States. But what I think will surprise very few people

it's to learn that this carbon-free energy source has quite the storied history.

Over the last few decades decades resulting in new reactors slowing almost entirely to a halt.

However, the past few years have been what some people might call a comeback story. In 2023, we saw America's first newly built

reactor come online in over three decades. But we're also seeing startups build

entirely new types of reactors, public discourse shifting,

and even the US government itself recently announcing its intent to triple nuclear power production by 2050.
