💨 Abstract
The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) has applied to build the first small modular nuclear reactor (SMR) in the U.S., aiming to advance next-generation nuclear power technology in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. TVA President Don Moul highlighted the reliability and carbon-free nature of nuclear energy. The utility plans to meet increasing electricity demand by 2035, driven by population growth and industrial needs. Despite concerns about past cost overruns, the investment signals a potential trend in nuclear energy development.
