Conor Lamb Quotes

We should remember that there are nations which meet more than 30 to 60% of their power requirements through the nuclear power system.

Nuclear energy is a baseload - meaning it's power that you can run any time you want, day or night - and carbon-free.

Nuclear power is not a miracle key for the future.

The idea that the growing demand for energy worldwide can be met with energy from nuclear power is nonsense.

Nuclear power is an important part of our domestic fuel mix.

For years, I have been a strong supporter of clean, safe nuclear energy as an important part of our energy mix.

In order to be vigorously continued, nuclear power must be profoundly modified.

While nothing is certain, I firmly believe our nation is on the verge of a nuclear energy renaissance.

If France can produce 80 percent of its electricity with nuclear power, why can't we?

Nuclear represents a significant low-carbon opportunity. The electricity it produces is green and reliable.

We should be building more nuclear today.

I would like nuclear fusion to become a practical power source. It would provide an inexhaustible supply of energy, without pollution or global warming.

There is no question we need an energy policy overhaul in America. A key part of that overhaul must include moving forward aggressively with expanding nuclear energy as a renewable energy source. Storing nuclear waste is an important piece of that effort.

As expanding economies continue to grow, the one source of energy that we can develop rapidly, cheaply and with next-to-no emissions is nuclear energy.

The trend in the world right now is - not just in developed countries, but in developing countries including China and India - there is a movement to build more and more nuclear plants.

Nuclear power is a young technology - there's so much more to be discovered. That's what makes it so exciting to me. Yes, there are problems, but innovative people are going to be able to come up with solutions and bring the technology to its full potential.

I really have become convinced that nuclear fusion is our energy future. It's so powerful. I mean, it is the power of the stars. If we could bring that down to the laboratory and to the power plant on Earth, that would be an incredible thing.

My holy grail is fusion energy. Nuclear fusion has little to no radioactive waste. It's clean. It's very abundant. The fuels are everywhere. There are problems with fusion.

Nuclear fusion is the energy source of the future and always will be.

Nuclear power is cost-competitive with other low-carbon technology and is a crucial part of our energy mix, along with new sources of power such as shale gas.

Other paths would include making nuclear fission cheap enough and safe enough that people broadly embrace it, so that could be scaled up.

One thing you can say about nuclear power: the people who believe it is the silver bullet for America's energy problems never give up.

Nuclear power will help provide the electricity that our growing economy needs without increasing emissions. This is truly an environmentally responsible source of energy.

Everybody wants clean, safe energy. Some people think nuclear is the way to go. Some people think coal is the way to go. Some people think wind is the way to go. And there's always balances on that.

If a power station were to be built down the road, I'd prefer a nuclear plant over an oil burner, and definitely over a coal burner. We simply have to lessen our consumption of fossil fuels.
