Overview: This paper considers potential supply and demand shocks from environmental, national security, and other risks affecting choices among electricity generation technologies. Maintaining some nuclear capacity now could avoid a costly and lengthy adjustment of gearing up a nuclear industry that might otherwise be in a run-down condition. This paper uses a decision-making model to develop a numerical example of a portfolio of fossil and nuclear electrical generating capacity. In this example, 25 percent of new capacity would be nuclear.
