America s nuclear energy industry is in decline. Low natural gas
prices, financing hurdles, failure to find a permanent repository
for high-level nuclear waste, reactions to the Fukushima accident
in Japan, and other factors are hastening the day when existing
U.S. reactors become uneconomic. The decline of the U.S. nuclear
energy industry could be much more rapid than policy makers and
stakeholders anticipate. China, India, Russia, and others plan on
adding nuclear technology to their mix, furthering the spread of
nuclear materials around the globe. U.S. companies must meet a
significant share of this demand for nuclear technology, but U.S.
firms are currently at a competitive disadvantage due to
restrictive and otherwise unsupportive export policies. Without a
strong commercial presence in new markets, America s ability to
influence nonproliferation policies and nuclear safety behaviors
worldwide is bound to diminish. The United States cannot afford to
become irrelevant in a new nuclear age.
