New York Gov. Kathy Hochul ordered the New York Power Authority, the nation's largest publicly-owned utility other than the federal government's Tennessee Valley Authority, to build a new nuclear power plant with a capacity of at least 1 gigawatt by 2040. 

I explained in here why that's such a big deal given the way the liberalization of electricity markets made building nuclear plants virtually impossible.
