U.S. Secretary of Energy: The Department of Energy is accelerating President Trump’s American Nuclear Revival Plan.

U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright plans to announce this funding support later Tuesday at a nuclear power plant in Illinois that will provide electricity to Alphabet Inc.'s Google. "The Department of Energy is accelerating President Trump's American nuclear energy revival plan and unlocking the full potential of our nation’s nuclear fleet," Wright said in a statement. He noted that upgrades to boost the output of existing nuclear facilities can expand electricity supply, support grid reliability, and improve affordability for consumers and businesses.
