U.S. needs to triple its nuclear fleet to keep pace with demand, says nuclear official.
Restarts like Three Mile Island represent only a fraction of the nuclear power needed, he says.
Restarting reactors will only provide a small fraction of nuclear power that is needed, official says.
Building new reactors at shuttered coal plants could reduce costs and help the nation achieve its goal of tripling nuclear power.
