The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has granted Holtec an exemption allowing it to start early site construction activities for the Pioneer nuclear power plant units 1 and 2.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Clean Energy.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Starting construction early lets Holtec beat lengthy delays common in nuclear projects. If you build tech or services for nuclear construction, these exemptions create openings to engage sooner in the project lifecycle.
