RICHLAND, Wash., Jan. 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Energy Northwest today announced an agreement with Bellevue-based Puget Sound Energy to accelerate the agency’s program examining the feasibility of developing and deploying a next-generation nuclear energy facility. State policies requiring a substantial increase in clean electricity are leading utilities to evaluate potential sources of new clean energy generation; and nuclear energy possesses many of the key attributes vital to establishing a reliable, emissions-free electric grid. New nuclear energy technologies, such as advanced small modular reactors, are approaching commercial readiness and feature enhanced safety systems; simplified, standardized, and scalable designs; and the ability to both swiftly integrate with renewables and provide around-the-clock electricity – without producing any greenhouse gas emissions.

The new framework supports the company’s goal to be a Beyond Net Zero Carbon company by 2045
