How much energy are we talking about?

Recycling used nuclear fuel in Oklahoma could produce enough electricity in just one year to power the equivalent of nearly four times the state's current annual electricity generation. That’s the kind of reliable power that supports hospitals, schools, and new jobs.

Could Oklahoma become a national hub for nuclear innovation?

The opportunity could mean reliable 24/7 power, new jobs, and major investment across the state.

CEA’s Marc Brown explains what this could mean for Oklahoma and what comes next in his latest for The Oklahoman.

Oklahoma's energy legacy makes it ideal for nuclear innovation | Opinion A nuclear hub would offer Oklahoma the chance to continue its energy tradition while creating jobs and helping meet America's growing power demands.

Used nuclear fuel can be recycled into new fuel and turned enough energy for 100 years. Oklahoma could host a facility that recycles fuel, generates power, and brings new industry and jobs to the state.

Building transmission is an economic competitiveness issue.

CEA President David Holt explains why building ahead matters for reliable, affordable energy, and America’s ability to compete in his new RealClearEnergy op-ed.

See why America can’t afford to fall behind.

To Power America’s Growth, We Need to Build Ahead America is growing, investing, and competing in ways that will require substantially more electricity than we have needed in decades. New manufacturing facilities are coming online. Artificial intelli

Arizona hit record electricity demand twice this summer. So how do you keep up without sacrificing affordability or reliability?

Arizona may have a blueprint.

See what responsible energy growth can look like and why other states should be paying attention.

Arizona’s Record Energy Demand Shows What Responsible Growth Can Look Like Arizona’s rising electricity demand is putting its energy system to the test. See how responsible planning, infrastructure investment, and a balanced energy mix can support growth while protecting affordability and reliability.

“Today’s decision is a major step forward for Texas consumers, businesses and communities. As energy demand rises, our electric infrastructure must be ready to meet it. Building a stronger, more efficient transmission system is essential to keeping the lights on, supporting continued economic growth and ensuring Texans have access to reliable, affordable electricity.” — CEA President David Holt

The PUCT's approval clears the way for the first 765 kV transmission lines ever built in Texas, helping strengthen the grid and prepare for future electricity needs.

Data center growth is already delivering benefits for Mississippi customers, with Arkansas and Louisiana next.

Entergy’s agreements require large energy users to cover their own grid costs while helping support investments that strengthen reliability and reduce costs existing customers would otherwise bear.

As new projects come online, that means more investment and economic growth without leaving families and small businesses to pick up the tab.

Entergy customers begin seeing benefits from data center agreements, Fair Share Plus pledge keeps money in customers’ pockets The first dollars attributed to Entergy’s data center corridor have begun to positively impact customer bills under the company’s Fair Share Plus pledge. Amazon’s hyperscale facility generates revenue…

Today’s decision by the State of Texas Public Utility Commission of Texas is an important first step toward strengthening the Lone Star State’s transmission system.

Building the infrastructure needed to move more electricity across Texas will help support growing demand, improve grid resiliency and protect the reliable, affordable energy families and businesses depend on.

A stronger Texas needs a stronger grid.

Regulators approve routes for Texas' first 765-kV power lines The Public Utility Commission of Texas on Friday cleared the path for Oncor to begin the easement process to build the high-voltage power lines.

Mississippi is showing what responsible energy growth can deliver.

Data center revenues helped prevent a $4.87 monthly bill increase for EntergyMississippi customers while supporting new investments in reliability and generation.

With more than $2 billion in projected customer savings ahead, this is what it looks like when economic growth strengthens the grid and delivers real benefits to families and businesses.

First benefits from data centers appear in Entergy Mississippi customer bills, eliminating nearly $5 monthly increase New revenues from Mississippi data centers, like Amazon’s, are a primary reason why Entergy Mississippi customers won’t see their rates increase this summer.

What happens in the Gulf of America doesn’t stay in the Gulf. Florida’s economy feels the impact.

Greater access to offshore energy means stronger supply, more investment and jobs, and more stable energy costs.

Associated Industries of Florida President and CEO Brewster Bevis explains why a predictable approach to Gulf energy development is a win for Florida’s economy.
