The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has been accused in a new lawsuit of hindering the nuclear energy industry, particularly smaller reactors, by imposing extensive time and cost licensing requirements.
The article discusses a lawsuit filed by a group of Republican-led states against the Biden administration over a new regulation concerning small nuclear reactors. The states, including Idaho, Indiana, Louisiana, Montana, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Wyoming, argue that the Department of Energy's (DOE) rule, which requires new nuclear reactors to share excess electricity with the grid, infringes on states' rights and could deter investment in nuclear energy. The rule, part of the Civil Nuclear Credit Program, aims to support the continued operation of nuclear reactors by compensating them for providing power to the grid, but the states contend that this mandate exceeds federal authority and could lead to economic disadvantages for states not directly benefiting from the reactors. The lawsuit claims that the regulation violates the Tenth Amendment by compelling states to enforce federal policy, and it seeks to block the implementation of this rule.
