Coal to Nuclear Repowering for a Just Transition

This talk focuses on the intersection between policies to decarbonize our energy system and efforts to ensure a just transition for fossil-fuel workers and dependent communities. One opportunity that has emerged is the potential to repower retiring coal power plants with small, modular nuclear reactors. Such projects could leverage existing infrastructure and workforce. This video explores some of first coal-to-nuclear projects underway, along with state and federal policies to aid such efforts.‍
