The Trump administration is fast-tracking the construction of nuclear reactors by promoting centers for nuclear recycling, according to Evan Halpert of the Washington Post. The Trump administration, working in concert with a company called Oklo, is preparing to build an “advanced fuel center” building on the same site “where uranium was enriched for the Manhattan project more than 80 [sic] years ago.” Oklo is investing $1.7 billion, according to an announcement by the company earlier this month.
