THE TOP FIVE

 

1. Trump=E2=80=99s = plan to build 10 new large reactors is making headway

For all its = willingness to share in the hype around as-yet-unbuilt small modular reacto= rs and microreactors, the Trump administration has long endorsed what I lik= e to call reactor realism. By that, I mean it embraces the need to keep bui= lding more of the same kind of large-scale pressurized water reactors we kn= ow how to construct and operate while supporting the development and deploy= ment of new technologies. In his flurry of executive orders on nuclear power= last May, President Donald Trump directed the Department of Energy to =E2= =80=9Cprioritize work with the nuclear energy industry to facilitate=E2=80= =9D 5 gigawatts of power uprates to existing reactors =E2=80=9Cand have 10 = new large reactors with complete designs under construction by 2030.=E2=80= =9D The record $26 billion loan= the agency=E2=80=99s in-house lender =E2=80=94 the Loan Programs Offic= e, recently renamed the Office of Energy Dominance Financing =E2=80=94 = ;gave to Southern Company this week to cover uprates will fulfill the = first part of the order. Now the second part is getting real. In a scoop on= Thursday, Heatmap=E2=80=99s Robinson Meyer reported that the Energy Depar= tment has started taking meetings with utilities and developers of what he = said =E2=80=9Cwould almost certainly be AP1000s, a third-generation reactor= produced by Westinghouse capable of producing up to 1.1 gigawatts of elect= ricity per unit.=E2=80=9D

 

Reactor realism includes keeping existing pla= nts running, so notch this as yet more progress: Diablo Canyon, the last nu= clear station left in California, just cleared the final state permitting h= urdle to staying open until 2030, and possibly longer. The Central Coast Wa= ter Board voted unanimously on Thursday to give the state=E2=80=99s last nu= clear plant a discharge permit and water quality certification. In a po= st on LinkedIn, Paris Ortiz-Wines, a pro-nuclear campaigner who helped = pass a 2022 law that averted the planned 2025 closure of Diablo Canyon, sai= d =E2=80=9C70% of public comments were in full support =E2=80=94 from Centr= al Valley agricultural associations, the local Chamber of Commerce, Dignity= Health, the IBEW union, district supervisors, marine meteorologists, and l= ocal pro-nuclear organizations.=E2=80=9D Starting in 2021, she said, she at= tended every hearing on the bill that saved the plant. =E2=80=9CBack then, = I knew every single pro-nuclear voice testifying,=E2=80=9D she wrote. =E2= =80=9CNow? I=E2=80=99m meeting new ones every hearing.=E2=80=9D 

2. Trump=E2=80=99s solar siege may be coming to an end&n= bsp;

It was = the best of times, it was the worst of times. It was a year of record solar= deployments, it was a year of canceled solar megaprojects, choked-off permit= s, and desperate industry pleas to Congress for help. But the solar in= dustry=E2=80=99s political clouds may be parting. The Department of the Int= erior is reviewing at least 20 commercial-scale projects that E&E News<= /a> reported had =E2=80=9Clanguished in the permitting pipeline=E2=80=9D si= nce Trump returned to office. =E2=80=9CThat includes a package of six utili= ty-scale projects given the green light Friday by Interior Secretary Doug B= urgum to resume active reviews, such as the massive Esmeralda Energy Center= in Nevada,=E2=80=9D the newswire reported, citing three anonymous career o= fficials at the agency. 

 

GOP voters overwhelmingly support solar power= , a recent poll commissioned by the panel manufacturer First Solar found. T= he MAGA coalition has some increasingly prominent fans. As I have covered in the newsletter, Katie= Miller, the right-wing influencer and wife of Trump consigliere Stephen Mi= ller, has become a vocal proponent of competing with China on solar and bat= teries.

3. America=E2= =80=99s only active rare earths miner is opening a Texas factory

MP Materials operates the only active rare ea= rths mine in the United States at California=E2=80=99s Mountain Pass. Now t= he company, of which the federal government became the largest shareholder = in a landmark deal Trump brok= ered earlier this year, is planning a move downstream in the rare earth= s pipeline. As part of its partnership with the Department of Defense, MP M= aterials plans to invest more than $1 billion into a manufacturing campus i= n Northlake, Texas, dedicated to making the rare earth magnets needed for m= odern military hardware and electric vehicles. Dubbed 10X, the campus is ex= pected to come online in 2028, according to The Wall Street Journal.

4. New York=E2=80=99s climate law will cost upstate= rs twice as much as city people

New York=E2=80=99s rural-urban divide already= maps onto energy politics as tensions mount between the places with enough= land to build solar and wind farms and the metropolis with rising demand f= or power from those panels and turbines. Keeping the state=E2=80=99s landma= rk climate law in place and requiring New York to generate the vast majorit= y of its power from renewables by 2040 may only widen the split. That=E2=80= =99s the obvious takeaway from data from the New York State Energy Research= and Development Authority. In a memo sent Thursday to Governor Kathy Hochu= l on the =E2=80=9Clikely costs of=E2=80=9D complying with the law as it sta= nds, NYSERDA warned that the statute will increase the cost of heating oil = and natural gas. Upstate households that depend on fossil fuels could face = hikes =E2=80=9Cin excess of $4,000 a year,=E2=80=9D while New York City res= idents would see annual costs spike by $2,300. =E2=80=9COnly a portion of t= hese costs could be offset by current policy design,=E2=80=9D read the memo= , a copy of which City & State reporter Rebecca C. Lewis po= sted on X. 

5. Support for= data centers is nosediving

Last fall, this publication=E2=80=99s energy = intelligence unit Heatmap Pro commissioned a nationwide survey asking thous= ands of American voters: =E2=80=9CWould you support or oppose a data center= being built near where you live?=E2=80=9D Net support came out to +2%, wit= h 44% in support and 42% opposed. Earlier this month, the pollster Embold R= esearch ran the exact same question by another 2,091 registered voters acro= ss the country. The shift in the results, which I wrote= about here, is staggering. This time just 28% said they would support = or strongly support a data center that houses =E2=80=9Cservers that power t= he internet, apps, and artificial intelligence=E2=80=9D in their neighborho= od, while 52% said they would oppose or strongly oppose it. That=E2=80=99s = a net support of -24% =E2=80=94 a 26-point drop in just a few months.

 

Among the more interesting results was the fa= ct that the biggest partisan gap was between rural and urban Republicans, w= ith the latter showing greater support than any other faction. When I asked= Emmet Penney at the right-leaning Foundation for American Innovation to ma= ke sense of that for me, he said data centers stoke a =E2=80=9Cfear of bign= ess=E2=80=9D in a way that compares to past public attitudes on nuclear pow= er.

THE KICKER

A Gulf coast pipeline boom.  Pho= to: EIA

Gas pipeline= construction absolutely boomed last year in one specific region of the U.S= . Spanning Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississipp= i, and Alabama, the so-called South Central bloc saw a dramatic spike in in= trastate natural gas pipelines, more than all other regions combined, per new Energy Information Administration data. It=E2=80=99s no mystery as to= why. The buildout of liquified natural gas export terminals along the Gulf= coast needs conduits to carry fuel from the fracking fields as far west as= the Texas Permian.
