Join the Southeast Nuclear Council, an initiative of E4 Carolinas, for a monthly webinar series about nuclear topics in the Southeast. This series is open to nuclear industry leaders, policymakers and the general public interested in nuclear’s impact on the region’s energy landscape. On May 23, hear Steve Rea, Chair Emeritus of the North Carolina Nuclear Energy Industry Advisory Council, and Blaine Blackwell, Director of Business Development at Day & Zimmermann, discuss nuclear workforce development. RSVP! ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/eAgQrjRM

Constellation Senior Vice President of Public Policy Mason Emnett joined representatives from Dow, Oklo Inc and the Texas Nuclear Alliance at SXSW to discuss nuclear power’s pivotal role in the clean energy transition. The conversation centered on the growing recognition that the U.S. must preserve and expand nuclear to maintain reliable and affordable electricity as we decarbonize the power sector. The group also agreed that success in new nuclear designs requires continued investment in, and operation of, the country’s existing fleet.

It is great to see young people like Will taking a lead in asking questions and engaging with experts on such an important matter as how best to ensure we have a reliable, secure, affordable energy supply into the future. We always need to challenge and keep an open mind, looking for better ways - and the challenges of our current pathways are becoming more obvious, particularly when it comes to reliability/ security risks and to price. Gas is great for firming, it is increasingly expensive and in high demand globally, we have failed to invest in exploration and development for reasons including policy and I see today an announcement from AEMO about supply shortfall risks in the eastern states. Let’s have a proper discussion informed by experts with different perspectives not just ‘the Science’ and what government funded organisations or industry players tell us, which naturally tends to align with current dominant thinking. We also need to understand the total cost of both pathways, nuclear but also 100% renewables including storage for long periods of wind and solar scarcity. What would have to be true for nuclear energy to make sense as a way to provide affordable reliable secure energy in the future, particularly to our manufacturing sector where reliability is so critical?
Earlier today we held a press conference at Lucas Heights, ANSTO in response to the coalition nuclear policy. In attendance were Australia’s leading nuclear experts Adrian (Adi) Paterson, Tony Irwin and Robert Barr and our founder Will Shackel.

Join us and NASEO - National Association of State Energy Officials on August 13, from 2:00-3:00 P.M. ET for a NARUC-NASEO Advanced Nuclear State Collaborative Webinar on Nuclear Power Plant Uprates! ⚛️ Historically, uprates have added over 8,000 MW of additional power from existing nuclear generation units. This session will dive into their potential for further increasing capacity across the U.S. nuclear fleet. Discover the types of uprates, their impacts, and the role of regulators in these crucial decisions. 🎙 Alyse Peterson, P.E., Senior Advisor for Nuclear Coordination and Radioactive Waste Policy at NYSERDA will moderate the discussion among distinguished panelists: Christopher Wiegand, Senior Technical Executive at EPRI, William Orders, Policy Advisor at U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and David Brown, Senior Vice President, Federal Government Affairs & Public Policy at Constellation. 🔗 Register now: https://bit.ly/4daXiBg. #Nuclear #Uprates #NuclearUprates #NuclearEnergy #PowerUprates #CleanEnergy #Webinar #EnergyInnovation

We are excited to spotlight one of The Hamiltonian student authors, David Goh. David is a member of the Duke University AHS Chapter and author of “More than Fissile Friends: Securing Nuclear Partnerships through U.S. Leadership.” The article examines how the United States can leverage its standing as a nuclear technology leader to create a risk management framework for exporting nuclear energy equipment and expertise. #AlexanderHamiltonSociety #TheHamiltonian

⚛️ The Association has published the 2024 edition of our annual report, At Work, reflecting on our key activities in the past year, as well as our plans for the rest of 2024. The report highlights that the momentum for increasing political support for nuclear energy continued throughout 2023, against the backdrop of volatile geopolitics and the ongoing energy security crisis. World Nuclear Association, with the support of our members, was at the heart of the conversation in 2023, contributing to a changing attitude towards nuclear power.

Advocate for a globally competitive #AUSTRALIANFUSIONENERGYINDUSTRY with strategic communications expertise.
Best invest in Building and talking about Fusion power, space, maritime propulsion systems and industry as data centres are. Great Headline, Guardian on Nuclear fission. https://lnkd.in/g8sMZtpR People talk about Nuclear (meaning Fission) and fail to discuss fusion. https://lnkd.in/ge_aeX7M The nuclear fission industry is ignorant of what's happening around it. It must pull its collective uranium heads out of the sand and prepare to enter the commercially growing fusion energy industry. Fission is moving towards obsolescence at an ever-increasing pace, as it is "out of step, out of time, out of place, and soon to be out of Fuel" and merely temporary. https://lnkd.in/gbd_mZqk By 2028, Helion is expected to start producing electricity from its first fusion commercial power plant, which will provide electricity to Microsoft. The plant will produce at least 50 MWe after an initial ramp-up period. https://lnkd.in/gY9J3MQY Now, see what is happening in the world of the fusion industry. https://lnkd.in/g9hMBD7a As fission trebles, fuel shortage is increasingly real, https://lnkd.in/gze5rwpr
🎉 Earlier this morning, Unit 4 at Plant Vogtle reached commercial operations, marking a major milestone in U.S. nuclear history. Congratulations to Georgia Power Company, Southern Nuclear, and all our #Bechtel colleagues on this achievement. Our Chairman and CEO, Brendan Bechtel reflected on this milestone and its broader significance for the global nuclear industry and U.S. leadership. ⬇️ "Continuing to grow America's civilian nuclear sector, including investments in both established and next-generation reactor technology, can reestablish the U.S. as the responsible partner of choice for new nuclear energy in the decades ahead. The accomplishment this week at Vogtle brings us closer to that goal." 📰Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gFk4p7et

🌐 Nuclear is back! At WNE 2023, we immersed ourselves in the dynamic discussions shaping the future of the civil nuclear industry. The 2023 edition was not just an event; it was a testament to the industry's reinvigorated passion. During our inaugural ceremony, Fatih Birol, the Executive Director of International Energy Agency (IEA), shared his insights into the newfound momentum in the civil nuclear sector: - Energy security - Environment - Competitiveness With a bright future ahead, there has never been a more compelling time to embrace the possibilities within the civil nuclear industry. Join us on this transformative journey and delve deeper into the world of WNE, the largest trade show in the industry. To see Fatih Birol’s full intervention, click here : https://lnkd.in/dRM7d8kr Follow us for more updates and be part of the nuclear renaissance! #CivilNuclear #WNE #WNE2023 #NuclearPower #CivilNuclearIndustry #energy
