The U.K. government approved the Fingleton Review on Thursday, endorsing nuclear power reforms to accelerate reactor construction through relaxed planning rules and regulatory mergers, positioning nuclear investment as a point of alignment with the Trump administration. The reforms aim to attract U.S. companies eager to invest in British energy infrastructure, with existing projects including collaborations between Centrica and X-Energy on reactors in Hartlepool and between Holtec and EDF on small modular reactors at Cottam.
