The opening date is being delayed for the nuclear plant that is slated to replace the Naughton coal plant near Kemmerer.
The start date will likely be pushed back two years to 2030, according to a press release from the nuclear plant developer TerraPower. The main reason is Russia’s war in Ukraine, as Russia is the only commercial supplier of the highly enriched uranium (HALEU) the plant needs to run.
If this plant is producing power in 2030, I’ll eat a road-kill skunk. Just in-case it does, I better stock up on ketchup.
