Energy firms push to build reactors as natural gas prices soar

USNews.com: Energy firms push to build reactors as natural gas prices soar (9/26/05):
"Gas-fired plants are cheaper and faster to build than coal facilities, and they produce lower emissions. But with costs soaring, nuclear has been looking more economically attractive. 'Natural gas prices drive electric prices in the whole nation, and they don't look like they are going down anytime soon,' says Dan Keuter, Entergy's head of nuclear business development."
