State legislation: Texas considers $2B incentive fund to attract new nuclear projects
A bill being considered in the Texas legislature would create a taxpayer-funded program to draw advanced nuclear projects to the state.
GOP state Rep. Cody Harris authored House Bill 14, which proposes use of public dollars to help fund nuclear construction, provide grants for reactors, and continue development research. The legislation would allocate up to $2 billion for a new Texas Advanced Nuclear Deployment Office and create within it a state coordinator position to assist in the state and federal permitting processes, according to Inside Climate News.
