Quite
a number of people, including this author, have used the term "nuclear
renaissance" to indicate the present tide that appears to lead to at
least six new nuclear plants within the decade at a total of three
sites, and the term is in fairly wide use. Some people not aware of the
overall history of nuclear energy in the United States may wonder how
this term really applies. To fill in that gap, I hereby present a VERY
truncated history of commercial nuclear energy in this country, with a
specific focus on the rundown in the mid-70's. This will help to give
perspective on just what was lost in this country when the nuclear
industry infrastructure ran down.
