The Prime Minister has heralded a new era for nuclear power as British and US companies unveil five commercial agreements in advance of the US President's state visit. Key initiatives include a new nuclear power plant in Hartlepool and data centers powered by mini reactors in Nottinghamshire.

The agreements aim to expedite nuclear projects and align safety standards, with the hope of addressing rising electricity demands and generating jobs. Despite enthusiasm, critics caution against the potential costs and waste management challenges associated with new nuclear technologies.
