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.

TXU never wanted the coal plants they wanted and paid money to have PR over having us let them build them???
That doesnt make any sense.

What does make sense is this: Texas needs power to grow and be successful. As gas gets expensive and coal gets unpalatable, nuclear will save the day.
