First impact
Residential Electricity →Prices easeIf future nuclear generation increases residential electricity supply, it can displace some gas-fired electricity demand; the edge shows residential electricity is highly dependent on pipeline-grade natural gas, but the event is speculative, long-dated, and low severity.

Natural Gas (Pipeline-Grade) →Prices easeIf future nuclear generation displaces gas burn and eases pipeline-grade natural gas prices, the critical high-dependency natural-gas input edge would transmit some cost relief back into residential electricity, though the policy timing is distant and uncertain.
46% confidenceNatural Gas (Pipeline-Grade) →Prices easeA long-run reduction in natural-gas demand from added nuclear power would pressure incumbent gas suppliers, with Kinder Morgan's 40% market-share edge making it the largest grounded company exposure, but the Italian future-capacity trigger keeps the effect small.
