Yup, we have some great new nuclear projects going in Texas...which, if you are cynical, we got as a result of TXU working with the Governor to 'fast-track' twelve or so new coal plants that TXU never wanted...but did get the freedom from lawsuits to build three plus add to its nuclear capabilities. Oddly enough, a lot of it started with a former governor we had...some guy named Bush.

Texas wants to use every acre it can to produce and sell power be it coal, nuclear, hydro, solar, wind, or frog farts.
