they are building the first new reactor in 30 years here in Maryland.

Unlikely, cold fusion turned out to be BS (bad science). A case of too much wishful thinking.
Nuclear fission reactors will probably never make a huge comeback in this country. Too many problems, cost too much to build, extremely toxic waste products, the fuel tends to come from unstable places in the world, etc etc. Not to even meantion the bad public perception. There are some interesting ideas for new smaller modular encapsulated nuke plants.
I think the large solar farms they are building in North Africa are interesting. Something that could be done in our southwest.
