Today @GovKathyHochul announced plans to develop a nuclear energy technology power plant in upstate NY. While no energy solution is without tradeoffs, nuclear innovation—alongside renewables & other low-carbon tech—is an important step to ensure a healthy planet. 🧵.
New York's economy is booming. We need clean, reliable, and affordable energy to power this incredible growth. Today we are taking bold action to build upstate New York's first new advanced nuclear power in a generation.
