To direct the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency to consider nuclear power to be a green source of energy, and for other purposes.
HR 2487 directs the EPA Administrator to classify nuclear power as a "green source of energy" within the Green Power Partnership program. This means businesses or organizations participating in the program could count nuclear power toward meeting their green energy procurement requirements. The bill also requires that federal funds for the program are only available if nuclear power is included as a qualifying green source. It specifically affects entities participating in the EPA's Green Power Partnership, not broader energy policy or regulations.
