Gov. Pritzker Vetoes Nuclear Bill

The Governor vetoed a bill to allow for possible expansion of nuclear power in Illinois. 

 

The veto continues Illinois moratorium on new power plants being built. But could changes to the bill attract the Governors’ signature? JB Pritzker says the bill changed at the last minute and became one that included the opportunity to build large scale traditional reactors – not just the latest smaller modular reactors that many in the industry are trying to get approval on.

 

 

There might be enough votes in the legislature to overcome the Governor’s veto this fall.
