U.S. Nuclear Energy joined CASEnergy because "great potential lies in forging links between pro-nuclear grassroots organizations," said Gary Duarte, Director of the U.S. Nuclear Energy Foundation.

"My knowledge of nuclear energy is that of an average citizen; I am not a scientist.  What I have learned from my grassroots pro-nuclear activities over the past three years, however, is that there is an 'awareness disconnect' from science to average citizens.  U.S. Nuclear Energy, in concert with the principles of CASEnergy, has a grassroots directive to educate America towards expanding nuclear energy development, and we urge all other similar organizations to collectively 'get the word out'." 

The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) represents approximately 750,000 members who work in a wide variety of fields, including utilities, construction, telecommunications, broadcasting, manufacturing, railroads and government.

Here is what Edwin Hill (IBEW International President) says about joining CASE:
"IBEW has joined the coalition because nuclear energy is one of several ways to boost economic growth, support good jobs in the construction and operations of new plants and communities and help ensure that our nation has a diverse and secure supply of energy to meet the needs of the American people well into the future."

Energy Northwest is a state-level Joint Operating Agency (JOA), comprised of 20 member public utilities in Washington. Formed in 1957, the JOA provides electricity at-cost to public utilities and municipalities, and energy-related services throughout the Pacific Northwest region. Vic Parrish, Energy Northwest CEO says "We joined CASEnergy as part of our broader commitment to environmental stewardship and meeting the energy needs of our public power members. Columbia Generating Station and new nuclear development allow us to do both." Energy Northwest owns and operates four electricity generating stations; Columbia Generating Station (nuclear BWR), Packwood Lake Hydroelectric Project, Nine Canyon Wind Project, and White Bluffs Solar Station. We also provide operations and maintenance services for a landfill-gas power plant and a natural gas combined cycle power plant. The JOA is presently developing a 680Mw Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) power plant in Western Washington, with initial operations slated for 2012.

The New England Energy Alliance is a coalition of energy providers, business and trade organizations, and others concerned about future energy supplies. The Alliance advocates for action to ensure the availability, reliability, and affordability of future energy supplies, which are vital to sustain the region's economic growth and prosperity.

"Nuclear power is particularly important to New England," says Carl Gustin, President of the Alliance. "The region's five facilities are the backbone of the electricity grid, providing reliable, round-the-clock and emission-free generation using a dependable fuel source. More than one-quarter of the region's electricity is generated from nuclear facilities."

The American Council on Science and Health (ACSH) is a consumer education consortium concerned with issues related to food, nutrition, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, lifestyle, the environment and health. Here is what Dr. Elizabeth Whelan, ACSH's President, says about their decision to join CASE:

"Nuclear energy is a safe technology that should be considered among a range of energy options. Our nation needs to resume building nuclear plants, much as Europe is doing, because they are a safe and efficient option."

The Francis College of Engineering at University of Massachusetts Lowell has a distinguished reputation for hands-on, practice-oriented education, cutting edge research, and integrating service and research into education at all levels.

Here is what Professor Gilbert J. Brown, Coordinator of the Nuclear Engineering Program, has to say about joining Case: A rigorous examination of the present risks, costs, and impact of all electric power sources leads us to conclude that nuclear power is more than acceptable: it is preferable.

Citizens for Nuclear Technology Awareness (CNTA) is a nonprofit, grassroots organization dedicated to nuclear education. "The worldwide resurgence of nuclear power is a direct result of several achievements," said Mal McKibben, Executive Director of Citizens for Nuclear Technology Awareness. "First, the incredible records of safety, efficiency, and cost of nuclear power are capturing the attention of the public. Also, the public is finally realizing that nuclear power is clean and green much more so than alternatives. Recent surveys confirm that this is happening. 87% of people living near existing power reactors approve of building more. That is about as close to unanimous as anything ever gets in the U.S. CASEnergy is taking that message to the public, and we wanted CNTA to be part of the chorus."

Associated Industries of Florida (AIF) is known as "The Voice of Florida Business Since 1920." We are a consortium of both individual companies and associations whose purpose is to advocate on issues important to the business community in Florida. We are the state affiliate for the National Association of Manufacturers and have been since 1951.
In December of 2005, AIF became the first general purpose business association in Florida to endorse drilling in the eastern Gulf of Mexico. In the process of doing so, we learned how very important energy was to all sectors of Florida's economy and our members. When we endorsed drilling, we also endorsed nuclear power, and all forms of green or alternative energy. We have two utility companies who are members of AIF that have plans for increasing their nuclear power output in the state, and we have endorsed their applications.
