Introducing Risk-Informed, Performance-Based Nuclear Safety
Conventional prescriptive regulatory approaches to nuclear safety, while effective in managing the current light-water reactor fleet, fail to adequately regard and consider the innovative capabilities of next-generation advanced reactor designs. Adoption of a risk-informed, performance-based framework to nuclear regulatory activities, as opposed to adherence to traditional regulatory paradigms, may be a critical step towards unleashing
The Role of Federal Government in Clean Energy Innovation
The Role of Federal Government in Clean Energy Innovation July 20, 2017 Clean energy innovation is essential to foster economic growth, enhance energy security, and protect the environment.
