flag The U.S. proposes incentives for states to host nuclear waste and expand reactors to boost nuclear power by 2050.

flag The U.S. government is exploring a new plan to encourage states to host nuclear waste by offering incentives for building reactors, reprocessing spent fuel, and enriching uranium, as part of an effort to quadruple nuclear power capacity to 400 gigawatts by 2050. flag The move marks a shift from the abandoned Yucca Mountain project and aims to address long-standing challenges in nuclear waste storage amid rising demand from AI and cryptocurrency. flag The initiative, which would be voluntary and non-binding, focuses on consent-based siting, though no permanent repository is currently planned. flag The Department of Energy has not confirmed the proposal, which was first reported by Politico.
