Reliable and Affordable Energy
U.S. House of Representatives, Securing America's Energy Future, May 8, 2006
“Nuclear energy must become the primary generator of baseload electricity, thereby relieving the pressure on natural gas prices and dramatically improving atmospheric emissions. To enhance competitiveness and protect American jobs, natural gas must not be used for baseload electricity generation, nor for new generating capacity. Natural gas should be reserved for industries that use it as a feedstock or for primary energy—and cannot substitute for it by fuel-switching.”—Committee on Government Reform, Subcommittee on Energy and Natural Resources
