Permission to use quoted material[edit]

On August 8th, 2005 I obtained permission to use the quote "A production tax credit of 1.8 cents per kilowatt-hour for the first 6,000 megawatt-hours from new nuclear power plants for the first eight years of their operation, subject to a $125 million annual limit. The production tax credit places nuclear energy on equal footing with other sources of emission-free power, including wind and closed-loop biomass" from:

I don't think we really need permission for a short quote of two sentences... --Delirium 00:07, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I think Simesa intended more to confirm the validity of the quote, since numbers are involved.--Xiaphias 08:15, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oh sorry, I should've waited till January 2008 to post that. --Xiaphias 08:17, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Costs of new plants[edit]

From Nucleonics Week, July 2006, "Areva is now estimating US$ 1800-2000/kW capacity for US EPR, Westinghouse $1500-1800/kW for AP1000, and GE $1850/kW for ABWR and $1600/kW for ESBWR." Simesa 15:14, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Spent Fuel from the Gen III+ Reactors[edit]

A Gen III+ reactor such as the Westinghouse Advanced Pressurized Water Reactor (AP1000) will used high eriched fuel (with ~5 % initial U-235) and be consumed to high burnup (> 35 Gwd/MTU).

The Changes in 2008 and Beyond[edit]

If anything, the 2005 legislation came into effect in 2008 with the massive loan guarantees were officially backed by federal government, and then subsequently extended in Obama's 2011 budget. The real legislation, policy implementation (and effects), what utilities have done, or anything substantial since the 2nd nuclear age began (2004-2010+) is not being cited or shown anywhere on this page. I am considering revamping this page or using some of its information in a more succinct way to fulfill the promise of "nuclear power 2010 program", since there is no 1 unifying page for the current US nuclear policy since 2005, this page could be helped by integrating more already available info from other nuclear wiki pages, and by more personal findings that can be cited.

I am part of a Wiki Foundation program where graduate schools across the country are coming into Wiki and improving the known information in various fields. My feild is US Environmental Policy from the WCU MPA department. Myself and my partner have extensive information on current Nuclear policy from both an neutral academic standpoint, and a supportive (pro-nuclear) non-profit standpoint. Any thoughts or suggestions to my suggested revisions?
