After forty-plus years in the US Nuclear industry, I’ve come to realize that I’ve been lucky to work in an industry that has been shaped by a culture of knowledge sharing. Unlike many other industries that are protective of their business processes and information in order to be competitive in the markets they operate in, […]
The Current Situation The commercial nuclear power industry has one major problem – the lack of understanding by non-nuclear educated individuals. In our quest to understand nuclear power, it’s crucial to look beyond headlines and dive into the facts. There is no doubt that the commercial nuclear power industry perception took a negative hit after […]
When I look back on my initial license training program to obtain my Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Senior Reactor Operator (SRO) license, I recall the intense amount of plant information and tasks I needed to learn just to be able to pass the final NRC exam. Over three decades ago, the SRO operating exam consisted […]
Imagine a future where; the majority of our power consumed worldwide has been generated with almost no carbon footprint, the oceans are used to solve water shortages, remote villages and towns around the globe have access to a safe, reliable steady-state electrical power, or a carbon-free portable power source that can be placed anywhere a […]
For the first time in two years, I feel as though I can plan to attend conferences in-person with the expectation that they will be held. While virtual events were the better choice between no events at all, face-to-face networking was sorely missed and what I look forward to most this year. I believe […]
