Before Valor Atomics builds nuclear reactors in a community, @isaiah_p_taylor says the team meets with local residents first to explain the costs and benefits and hear their feedback. "Valar has really taken community engagement an order of magnitude more seriously than any other nuclear company so far." "When we come into a community, we don't come in after the project and say, 'Here's how you get to know us because we're in your backyard now.' We actually go to the community first and explain the cost benefits and ask people, 'What do you think?' We try to get people to engage with it before we go and actually do something." "We host events, we host barbecues, and people are really excited to have us here. If you look at the surveys on nuclear versus data centers, interestingly, people are cool with the data center as long as you build a nuclear power plant first."

Hungary will restart the first of three nuclear reactors it was forced to shut down due to the record low level of the Danube river, as the country looks to recover from an unprecedented energy crisis.

China is leading the global nuclear race: China now has 39 nuclear reactors under construction, more than the next 12 countries combined. This is followed by India and Russia, at 8 and 7, respectively, less than half of China's total combined. China also has a much younger pipeline of nuclear projects, with reactors currently under construction averaging just ~2.8 years since work began. By comparison, the global average stands at ~5.8 years, inflated by long-delayed projects, such as India's 22-year construction timeline and Brazil's 16-year timeline. Meanwhile, the US currently has no large commercial nuclear reactors under construction. China is building the world's largest pipeline of nuclear reactors.
