The Thorium Energy Alliance (TEA) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in the United States which promotes the use of thorium in nuclear power. The potential for thorium-based nuclear power was studied extensively during the 1950s and 1960s, and experienced a worldwide revival of interest in the early 2010s due to concerns regarding safety, economics, and availability of other energy sources. The TEA advocates for the use of thorium both in existing nuclear reactors and in next generation reactors. It promotes initiatives to educate scientists, government officials, and the general public.
