Canada’s Nuclear Power Push
from Edmonton News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Canada’s government just unveiled a bold nuclear energy push, aiming to build up to ten new reactors by 2050 to power its net-zero future and double its electricity grid capacity. With 17 existing reactors supplying 15% of the nation’s power, the plan targets job growth from 90,000 to 180,000 and positions Canada as a global leader in nuclear innovation. Key goals include modernizing the aging CANDU design, expanding uranium exports, and securing four new international markets for reactor tech—all while streamlining approvals under one federal regulator to accelerate development of next-gen modular reactors.
