State legislation: Illinois bill aims to lift state’s remaining nuclear moratorium
A bill that would fully repeal the state’s entire moratorium on new nuclear projects survived a key deadline in the Illinois General Assembly last week.
To stay afloat in the spring legislative session, bills needed to be assigned to committee by March 21, and state Sen. Sue Rezin’s Senate Bill 1527 now sits with the Senate’s Energy and Public Utilities committee for review.

In June 2023 the Department of Energy (DOE) announced 13 awardees for work with communities interested in DOE's community-centered approach to storing and disposing of spent nuclear fuel, a process known as consent-based siting. It has now been a year into the program, and the panel session will discuss progress to date. Panelists will include representatives of DOE and some of the awardee teams.
