    similar to this plan of puerto rico's, idaho power, a utility company serving about a half a million people in--you guessed it--idaho has also stated it will go completely 'clean' by 2045. this actually might include nuclear, interestingly enough.

    The modular nuclear plan centers on the Idaho National Laboratory, in Idaho Falls. After Idaho Power announced its clean energy plan, Mayor Sean Colettti of nearby Ammon, Idaho, asked the utility via Twitter if it will include nuclear energy.
    “We’ll be evaluating all kinds of new, existing and emerging technologies to help us reach our goal,” the utility replied. “That includes looking into nuclear technology, such as the small modular reactors planned in eastern Idaho.”

    so we're seeing all sorts of nice little jumps in progress here and there with renewable and cleaner forms of energy production.
