The US nuclear industry recently celebrated the commissioning of the country's first new reactors in over 30 years in Georgia. Despite the fanfare, the Vogtle plant's delays and costs have dampened enthusiasm for new reactors, leading the industry to focus on retrofitting existing plants. Challenges in new reactor construction have shifted attention towards upgrading current facilities, with the hope that tax incentives and political support will drive additional capacity expansion through upgrades in the coming years.
