A company hopes to restore a dead nuclear power plant to life for the first time in the U.S. The Palisades plant in southwestern Michigan closed in May 2022. It was sold to Holtec, a company that dismantles shuttered nuclear plants. But Holtec is developing plans to restart Palisades. Officials say they were motivated by a Biden administration initiative to keep aging nuclear plants going and by support from Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. Nuclear is a key part of the administration's plan to rid the U.S. of greenhouse gas emissions causing global warming. Anti-nuclear activists say Palisades is dangerous and don't want it revived.
