The transition to clean energy is held back by subsidies to the nuclear industry


Nuclear Subsidies May Be Slowing Transition to Clean Energy, Advocates Say,
The fight to define what counts as clean energy has grown more contentious as the Biden administration’s infrastructure bill takes shape. Many activists, scientists and lawmakers agree that nuclear energy which provides one fifth of power in the U.S is by definition not “clean” or renewable, given that spent fuel remains radioactive and dangerous for thousands of years…..  A group of staunch advocates say billions in state and federal subsidies that prop up the nuclear industry payments that the Biden administration has signaled it may continue to support may be slowing the transition to a truly clean energy economy……   Four days after Indian Point shuttered, on May 4, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approved a 20-year license renewal for two Dominion Energy reactors in Virginia, now slated to run until May 25, 2052. Half of the United States’ nuclear flee ....

Sezin Topçu: “The state monitors militants and plutonium with the same fears” For the sociologist of science, the trial of the Bure activists shows that nuclear power is a strategic issue for France, which explains a”criminalization of anti-nuclear action”.
Twelve months firm required for one, 10 to 18 months suspended sentence required for the other six defendants: the anti-nuclear fight could cost them dearly. The judgment of the seven opponents of the disposal project of the National Agency for the Management of Radioactive Waste (Andra), dubbed “Cigeo”, whose trial was held between Tuesday and Thursday, will be delivered on September 21. The means put in place by the justice system (which would have spent nearly a million euros for the investigation, according to Reporterre and Mediapart) have not yet made it possible to prove anything else on this “organized band” of “criminals” that the orga ....

Advocates Host Forum On Indian Point Decommissioning


4:36
Local officials and environmental advocates are expressing concern over the future of the decommissioning of the Indian Point nuclear power facility in Westchester County.
Last week, state officials celebrated a sale agreement of Indian Point from parent company Entergy to Holtec International, the entity tasked with decommissioning the site.
Indian Point ceased operations at the end of April.
The sale agreement was brokered by New York State Attorney General Tish James, who said last week the agreement with Holtec “certifies we can move forward with a decommissioning process that is safe, responsible, thorough, and exceeds stringent federal standards.”
Governor Andrew Cuomo in a statement called the agreement brokered after years of negotiations “a win for the health and safety of New Yorkers, and the protection of our environment.” ....

It was supposed to usher in a golden age for nuclear power in New York, and initially had little opposition. But eventually a network of environmental groups as well as everyday citizens who were wary of nuclear power in the wake of Three Mile Island, and then Chernobyl, turned against it. The public questioned the wisdom of building a nuclear power plant so close to New York City. Activists led protests, serenaded by folk singer Pete Seeger, a resident of Beacon. The evacuation plan the plant created was deemed to be unrealistic, and state officials refused to certify it. Finally, after many tumultuous years, Gov. Cuomo announced the decommissioning of the plant. ....
