Michelle Catts, MBA, Senior Vice President, Nuclear Programs, participated in the Women's Energy Network Alliance “female trailblazers in energy” panel this week in Edinburgh. Michelle discussed her career journey at GEH and highlighted the importance of attracting top, diverse talent for nuclear innovation. “I was really pleased to share my experiences with such an esteemed panel and hopefully inspire the next generation of women in nuclear,” she said. Michelle has been instrumental in our work in the UK as the BWRX-300 small modular reactor goes through the Generic Design Assessment process. We were proud to be a sponsor of the event and play a part in promoting diversity in the nuclear industry.

Advocate for a globally competitive #AUSTRALIANFUSIONENERGYINDUSTRY with strategic communications expertise.
Don't waste your hard-earned tax dollars on nuclear fission Renewables have a cost and place in the world and the world should be developing fusion energy like the rest of the world. As fission trebles, fission fuel shortage is increasingly real, as linked below. https://lnkd.in/gze5rwpr https://lnkd.in/ge_aeX7M You are, as the nuclear fission industry is, ignorant of what's happening around you. Pull your uranium heads out, start adjusting your industry to fusion energy and start preparing to enter the commercially growing fusion energy industry. As it dawns on Earth like the sun. Fission is moving towards obsolescence at an accelerated pace, as it is "out of step, out of time, out of place," and merely a temporary industry globally. 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 news is happening in the Fusion industry in the world. https://lnkd.in/g9hMBD7a Great Headline Guardian on Nuclear fission. https://lnkd.in/g8sMZtpR

Most days at work I wonder why there aren’t more women in nuclear. There are so many interesting tasks to work on, and the career opportunities are great. Today however, I was wondering why there aren’t more men in nuclear R&D management, as I participated in a meeting with Studsvik, VATTENFALL NUCLEAR FUEL AB and OKG to discuss R&D. Five women and one man – I think we need to start working on the gender balance to get more men into nuclear R&D management 😉 . One of the topics we discussed was the need for dialogue between ministry and industry on nuclear R&D in Sweden - not only for newbuild, but also to discuss the needs for existing nuclear. In many cases the needs are the same, but sometimes they differ. Our new Swedish nuclear coordinator Carl Berglöf has a clear focus on newbuild - we would also like to have a single point of contact between ministry and industry to discuss R&D in existing nuclear. The industry has a lot of good ideas, but we simply don’t always know how to get them through the noise to reach the ears of the ministry. Last year the ministry arranged a much appreciated hearing on nuclear R&D with a short and intense program. I hope for a sequel this year, but with additional time so that more voices can be heard. #nuclear #nuclearenergy #nuclearpower #nuclearindustry #researchanddevelopment Ringhals AB Forsmarks Kraftgrupp AB, Vattenfall Joakim Lundström Mimmi Bäck Lotta Nyström Carolina Losin Ella Ekeroth

Well put Monika Adsten! The importance of R&D for the existing nuclear fleet deserves priority and attention since key for continued effiecent operation.
