Nuclear energy must be embraced alongside coal & natural gas with research fellow at The Heartland Institute Linnea Lueken

America’s growing energy demands require an all-of-the-above approach, and that means embracing nuclear power alongside reliable coal and natural gas generation, according to Linnea Lueken. Lueken says nuclear energy provides dependable, emissions-free baseload power that can strengthen the nation’s electric grid while complementing traditional energy sources that continue to fuel homes, businesses, and industry. She argues that coal, natural gas, and nuclear power together offer the reliability and affordability needed to meet future demand and maintain America’s energy independence.
