US Nuclear Energy: Decaying Dominance

US nuclear energy is in a state of decay. The industry lacks standardization, making it expensive and timely to deploy new nuclear energy projects. Policy support is also lacking compared to other energy sources. Public opinion on nuclear energy is warming but will do little for commercial uptake – investors still face massively high startup costs. Meanwhile, competition is heating up. China is fast approaching the global top spot with its grand nuclear energy strategy. For once, the US may not be the best investment case we have all come to know.
