Dominion, Virginia move forward in pursuing small modular reactor goals
July 12, 2024
Virginia’s pursuit of nuclear power technology, though ambitious and not without resistance, continues to prove more than empty rhetoric, as representatives from Dominion Energy and the Youngkin administration gathered Wednesday at a company power station to share the next steps.
Dominion had selected its Louisa County North Anna Power Station as a possible site for a small modular nuclear reactor and announced it “has issued a Request for Proposals from leading SMR nuclear technology companies” to evaluate its feasibility.
