RUSH TRANSCRIPT Priority And ░░░░░░░░ policy that is supportive ░░░░░░░░ nuclear energy would in ░░░░░░░░ be the demand signal ░░░░░░░░ you re we re ░░░░░░░░ for that Would that ░░░░░░░░ be a great first ░░░░░░░░ I m still waiting ░░░░░░░░ and energy policy from ░░░░░░░░ administration miss bradbury What ░░░░░░░░ does carbon capture storage ░░░░░░░░ utilization technologies and innovation ░░░░░░░░ In reducing U s ░░░░░░░░ moving forward and what ░░░░░░░░ policies are needed to ░░░░░░░░ accessibility and utilization of ░░░░░░░░ technologies is miller makes ░░░░░░░░ you so much for ░░░░░░░░ question I will say ░░░░░░░░ between the I a ░░░░░░░░ administration the dia we ░░░░░░░░ is wise scale agreement ░░░░░░░░ ccs has a critical ░░░░░░░░ to play in meeting ░░░░░░░░ climate objectives particularly among ░░░░░░░░ to abate sectors some ░░░░░░░░ the some of the ░░░░░░░░ that were saying with ░░░░░░░░ scalability of carbon capture ░░░░░░░░ permitting reform and the ░░░░░░░░ for permanent reform and ░░░░░░░░ I would also say ░░░░░░░░ regard to the permitting ░░░░░░░░ wells There are only ░░░░░░░░ states right now that ░░░░░░░░ primacy when it comes ░░░░░░░░ the permitting of classics ░░░░░░░░ Wyoming in North Dakota ░░░░░░░░ number of states that ░░░░░░░░ pending applications with the ░░░░░░░░ for state primacy states ░░░░░░░░ the most expertise and ░░░░░░░░ this type of well ░░░░░░░░ that would be an ░░░░░░░░ step in the right ░░░░░░░░ Thank you a you ░░░░░░░░ back giulio on record ░░░░░░░░ the German from the ░░░░░░░░ savannah area of Georgia ░░░░░░░░ five minutes And you ░░░░░░░░ chairman thank you Allow ░░░░░░░░ to wave on dark ░░░░░░░░ I suspect yours disappointed ░░░░░░░░ I am results of ░░░░░░░░ afternoon but nevertheless we ░░░░░░░░ on Thank you for ░░░░░░░░ here You been here ░░░░░░░░ often in and we ░░░░░░░░ it Thank all of ░░░░░░░░ for being here is ░░░░░░░░ dot getty I noticed ░░░░░░░░ in your testimony You ░░░░░░░░ a point You made ░░░░░░░░ before about this rush ░░░░░░░░ green and how we ░░░░░░░░ sacrificing our global competitiveness ░░░░░░░░ I couldn t agree ░░░░░░░░ you more as I ░░░░░░░░ I ve told you ░░░░░░░░ been to Europe is ░░░░░░░░ member of the conservative ░░░░░░░░ caucus and I ve ░░░░░░░░ what has happened there ░░░░░░░░ They vowed their policies ░░░░░░░░ get ahead of their ░░░░░░░░ and now they re ░░░░░░░░ Tracking even having to ░░░░░░░░ coal in some instances ░░░░░░░░ I fear that we ░░░░░░░░ be doing the same ░░░░░░░░ I m very concerned ░░░░░░░░ our home state of ░░░░░░░░ and about the fact ░░░░░░░░ we re investing lot ░░░░░░░░ in in green energy ░░░░░░░░ as we should in ░░░░░░░░ s good But even ░░░░░░░░ the plant come in ░░░░░░░░ know what happens if ░░░░░░░░ get a change in ░░░░░░░░ and all of a ░░░░░░░░ we we shift gears ░░░░░░░░ we re not headed ░░░░░░░░ this Did it down ░░░░░░░░ path anymore but nevertheless ░░░░░░░░ as a chance we ░░░░░░░░ in it s is ░░░░░░░░ concerning to me about ░░░░░░░░ know This is a ░░░░░░░░ problem We all understand ░░░░░░░░ everyone here understands is ░░░░░░░░ global problem when we ░░░░░░░░ talking about greenhouse gas ░░░░░░░░ or when we re ░░░░░░░░ about About carbon emissions ░░░░░░░░ in India that it ░░░░░░░░ one of the largest ░░░░░░░░ emitters they admit that ░░░░░░░░ plan to still depend ░░░░░░░░ coal well into the ░░░░░░░░ We know the China ░░░░░░░░ providing them with that ░░░░░░░░ let me ask you ░░░░░░░░ get a of these ░░░░░░░░ to green policies and ░░░░░░░░ that have been proposed ░░░░░░░░ the current administration How ░░░░░░░░ they impact U s ░░░░░░░░ ability to to compete ░░░░░░░░ into power our economy ░░░░░░░░ good to have here ░░░░░░░░ reluctant or the rotary ░░░░░░░░ that the trigger mode ░░░░░░░░ hurtful remark earlier to ░░░░░░░░ from Alabama in our ░░░░░░░░ with regard to the ░░░░░░░░ impacts on news this ░░░░░░░░ is it s it ░░░░░░░░ going to be a ░░░░░░░░ point from from myself ░░░░░░░░ from our colleagues at ░░░░░░░░ with that the inverse ░░░░░░░░ Georgia is we gonna ░░░░░░░░ restructure reorganize Our industrial ░░░░░░░░ is gonna change It ░░░░░░░░ of the one of ░░░░░░░░ most principled impacts It ░░░░░░░░ gonna hi of yours ░░░░░░░░ resources that that miss ░░░░░░░░ talked about our fossil ░░░░░░░░ resources These represent stored ░░░░░░░░ resources there and the ░░░░░░░░ third layer for us ░░░░░░░░ use whenever we modal ░░░░░░░░ energy resources to shift ░░░░░░░░ a an industrial strategy ░░░░░░░░ we have to manufacture ░░░░░░░░ stored energy in terms ░░░░░░░░ batteries We don t ░░░░░░░░ the consequences and we ░░░░░░░░ t know if our ░░░░░░░░ base can stand up ░░░░░░░░ our competitors in that ░░░░░░░░ we re looking at ░░░░░░░░ our economy we don ░░░░░░░░ know if an electrified ░░░░░░░░ an electrified America can ░░░░░░░░ up to competitors There ░░░░░░░░ more unknowns been There ░░░░░░░░ Er gnomes of restructuring ░░░░░░░░ royal carbon reduction as ░░░░░░░░ tip of the spear ░░░░░░░░ of security is the ░░░░░░░░ of the spear raises ░░░░░░░░ questions than it does ░░░░░░░░ right You and I ░░░░░░░░ know and I think ░░░░░░░░ knows about did the ░░░░░░░░ of Georgia and our ░░░░░░░░ of nuclear energy and ░░░░░░░░ m very proud of ░░░░░░░░ I m very proud ░░░░░░░░ we had the first ░░░░░░░░ reactors built in over ░░░░░░░░ years in this country ░░░░░░░░ I think it adds ░░░░░░░░ our national security perspective ░░░░░░░░ fact I think you ░░░░░░░░ mentioned this in in ░░░░░░░░ testimony as well You ░░░░░░░░ said in your toes ░░░░░░░░ that renewable should be ░░░░░░░░ in diverse energy portfolio ░░░░░░░░ not as replacement resources ░░░░░░░░ they will not deliver ░░░░░░░░ same value to America ░░░░░░░░ industrial base is fossil ░░░░░░░░ are nuclear How how ░░░░░░░░ have states embraced More ░░░░░░░░ energy portfolios are how ░░░░░░░░ death is the states ░░░░░░░░ have embraced more diverse ░░░░░░░░ portfolios How are they ░░░░░░░░ economically and competitive our ░░░░░░░░ of Georgia I would ░░░░░░░░ that we have a ░░░░░░░░ diverse energy portfolio in ░░░░░░░░ re number one state ░░░░░░░░ to do business for ░░░░░░░░ straight year for congressmen ░░░░░░░░ probably of spoken at ░░░░░░░░ s probably About 15 ░░░░░░░░ 20 states over the ░░░░░░░░ three years at their ░░░░░░░░ sections of electric power ░░░░░░░░ the envy where we ░░░░░░░░ Georgia they envy states ░░░░░░░░ have diverse resources Industries ░░░░░░░░ those states are looking ░░░░░░░░ places that have not ░░░░░░░░ affordable electricity but reliable ░░░░░░░░ and also those states ░░░░░░░░ are looking long term ░░░░░░░░ are that that or ░░░░░░░░ in their power sector ░░░░░░░░ around just carbon reduction ░░░░░░░░ around an energy future ░░░░░░░░ this serve grandchildren and ░░░░░░░░ just the current generation ░░░░░░░░ re doing that Georgia ░░░░░░░░ a lot of the ░░░░░░░░ currently the regulated markets ░░░░░░░░ Like giorgio that s ░░░░░░░░ we re able to ░░░░░░░░ through in great resource ░░░░░░░░ great Well thank you ░░░░░░░░ being your Thank you ░░░░░░░░ of you for being ░░░░░░░░ Thank you mister chairman ░░░░░░░░ go dogs You no ░░░░░░░░ you could
