Nuclear Power

The state of Oklahoma, like many other states, is evaluating different options when discussing how best to produce power in the future. One idea that continues to rise to the forefront of this debate is nuclear energy. Countries like France get a majority of their power from nuclear energy. Many argue that it is safer than it was, and is cleaner than fossil fuels. We want to know what you think. Send us your ideas on Nuclear Energy and on Energy Policies today!
