Briefing: Opinion: America’s nuclear renaissance has everything — except uranium, welders and a plan

The anticipated resurgence of nuclear energy in the United States is hindered by critical shortages of uranium and qualified welders, both essential for plant operations and construction.

Current supply chains for uranium are under strain, which could impact the feasibility of new nuclear projects and the overall energy strategy.

Moreover, the lack of a comprehensive implementation plan raises concerns about the sustainable growth of nuclear energy, necessitating immediate attention to resource allocation and workforce development.
