New laws offer nuclear industry incentives for existing power plant uprates
This year, the U.S. nuclear industry received a much-needed economic boost that could help preserve operating nuclear power plants and incentivize upgrades that extend their lifespan and power output.
Signed into law in 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act offers production tax credits (PTCs) for existing nuclear power plants and either PTCs or investment tax credits (ITCs) for new carbon-free generation. These credits could make power uprates—increasing the maximum power level at which a commercial plant may operate—a much more appealing option for utilities.

Neutron resonance energies have been obtained for a number of selected well-isolated resonances in several elements and isotopes. The energy parameters were mainly obtained at Columbia University’s 200-m time-of-flight spectrometer with high precision. These energy calibration points are important for a number of experiments in neutron and reactor physics.
