"Sometime after three mile island and before Al Gore's movie on global warming, nuclear power got cool again. It's not that anyone has figured out a brilliant way to store spent radioactive fuel. But the U.S. must maintain a reliable electricity network, and is stepping up pollution reduction to comply with new emissions standards. With North America's supply of clean-burning natural gas dwindling, turbines fueled by uranium -- which already produce 20% of the nation's power -- seem destined to play a bigger role in keeping the lights on, especially if regulators give the go-ahead for new U.S. nuclear plants; none have been ordered since 1978. Says Charles Gaffney, an energy and utilities analyst at Eaton Vance Management in Boston: "The low-cost nature of operating these plants, and the high-priced power environment we are in, will lead to margin expansion for the incumbent nuclear generators."
