A new nuclear plant could help create several new Ohio jobs.
Duke Energy, an American utility provider, and Areva, a French nuclear reactor manufacturer, are studying whether or not they can build a reactor in southern Ohio at a plant that was previously used for enriching uranium.
The plant would create 4,000 to 5,000 construction jobs and 500 to 700 permanent jobs, according to an article by The New York Times. If built, the reactor would be one of a series of plants planned by UniStar, a joint venture to build Areva plants, formed by Constellation Energy and Electricite de France.
