The Utah Model: A Blueprint for Creating American Energy Dominance Through Nuclear Energy

The United States confronts dual challenges: rising energy demand from artificial intelligence (AI) data centers and the need for reliable, carbon free baseload power to create American energy dominance.
To ensure that AI innovation advances are based in America, not in China, the United States needs to ensure continued, durable power growth. To meet this demand, states are becoming the primary incubators for pathways to energy dominance.
Utah has emerged as a national leader in this effort, methodically constructing a comprehensive framework to foster the development of advanced nuclear energy and small module reactors. By prioritizing strategic planning, targeted investment, and public-private collaboration, Utah is creating a powerful, replicable blueprint for securing American energy dominance and economic prosperity.
