The Power Hour is a weekly podcast that discusses the most interesting energy and environmental policy issues of the day with top national experts. Join Jack this week for a conversation with former nuclear industry insider and nuclear fuel expert, CJ Milmoe about America’s dependence on Russian nuclear fuel. While the U.S. was quick to ban Russian oil and natural gas imports after Putin’s invasion into Ukraine, it remains dependent on Russian low enriched uranium to power its commercial nuclear reactors. Jack and CJ discuss why this remains the case and what can and is being done about it. Join the conversation with an email to thepowerhour@heritage.org! And thank you all for a great 2023. Here is to an even better 2024!
