VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Jan. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Equity-Insider.com News Commentary – After decades of flat demand, U.S. electricity generation is finally accelerating, with growth projected at 2.4% in 2025 and 1.7% in 2026—largely driven by the massive power needs of AI data centers[1]. As Big Tech firms look to SMR nuclear technology for massive amounts of carbon-free energy, a significant vulnerability has been exposed: U.S. nuclear plants currently import over 95% of their uranium from foreign sources, including Russia and Kazakhstan[2]. The U.S. government has recognized the need for secure, domestic baseload power, which supports a 2026 investment case for soon-to-be-Nasdaq-listed Eagle Energy Metals (will be NUCL), Uranium Energy Corp. (NYSE-A: UEC), NexGen Energy (NYSE: NXE) (TSX: NXE), Denison Mines (NYSE-A: DNN) (TSX:DML), and Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE-A: UUUU) (TSX: EFR). The intersection of the AI boom and national security is completely reshaping the market
