Facilitating the Next-Generation Nuclear Renaissance: Standardization, Design, and Cross-Sector Considerations

By |2022-01-24T10:28:48-05:00April 22nd, 2021|Categories: Events, Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Energy Workshops|0 Comments

Although standardization will be needed to improve the viability and commercial competitiveness of future nuclear reactor designs, specific customer preferences and requirements will often necessitate customized solutions. Furthermore, as many U.S. advanced reactor designs are presently in a demonstration phase, specific design details will need to be determined before the process of standardization can commence.

International Coordination in Nuclear Energy Innovation: Regulatory Harmonization and Opportunities for Early Demonstration and Deployment

By |2021-10-18T14:43:17-04:00April 15th, 2021|Categories: Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Energy Workshops|0 Comments

Nuclear energy will be a key energy producing technology in the coming battle against climate change and greenhouse gas emissions, especially in sectors such as heavy industry and transportation. Advanced nuclear technologies offer a number of innovative characteristics that allow them to be more economical than traditional large light water reactors (LWRs). Furthermore, there is

Principles, Strategies, and Models for Successful Global SMR Deployment

By |2021-10-18T14:44:50-04:00March 4th, 2021|Categories: Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Energy Workshops|0 Comments

To become viable, SMRs will require a fleet approach--deployment in large numbers with high degrees of standardization and modularity. To overcome the loss of economies of scale, the development of economies of numbers and mass production must be pursued. As such, it would be prudent for SMR vendors to mirror practices and models from other

Implications of Current Trends in the Nuclear Workforce: Recent Developments and Possible Responses

By |2021-10-18T14:48:19-04:00January 19th, 2021|Categories: Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Energy Workshops|0 Comments

In the United States and South Korea, the nuclear industries are experiencing a decline in workforce. The shift away from nuclear in both countries can be cited as a potential factor in the declining workforce, as the US is experiencing premature reactor shutdowns and South Korea is experiencing a political shift towards an anti- nuclear

The U.S.-Korea Partnership in Clean Energy and Climate Change

By |2022-01-04T13:22:00-05:00December 15th, 2020|Categories: Clean Energy Forum and Seminars, New and Renewable Energy, Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Energy Workshops|0 Comments

Both the US and Korea have made strong political commitments to developing clean energy solutions to combat climate change and meet emissions targets as set forth in the Paris Accord. South Korea has introduced a “Green New Deal” that seeks to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 through the institution of more aggressive clean energy

Advancing International Civil Nuclear Cooperation and Engagement: Legislative and Policy Avenues

By |2020-11-12T16:59:04-05:00November 12th, 2020|Categories: Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Energy Workshops|0 Comments

America's advanced nuclear renaissance has formed the springboard upon which the United States can regain world leadership in nuclear energy. However, a failure to develop global standards for advanced nuclear regulation, leverage capital and investment from international partners and allies, and establish a robust fuel cycle sector to support advanced reactors may threaten to derail

GABI Virtual Workshop – Advanced Reactor Licensing

By |2020-10-28T15:57:45-04:00October 28th, 2020|Categories: Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Energy Workshops, Uncategorized|0 Comments

Fulfilling the promise of advanced nuclear will, particularly in the U.S., require addressing issues of cost competitiveness. A major part of this challenge is the development of a regulatory framework that allows certainty and clarity for advanced reactor vendors navigating the licensing process. Historically, the NRC has employed a prescriptive approach that has been adapted

GABI-FNS Virtual Briefing – Role of Nuclear in Decarbonization

By |2020-10-09T00:16:04-04:00October 8th, 2020|Categories: Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Energy Workshops|0 Comments

Historically, the most rapid reductions in carbon emissions have resulted from large build outs of nuclear power, as was witnessed in France in the 1970s and 1980s. While preserving existing nuclear plants will be crucial to carbon mitigation, accelerating reductions in GHG emissions will require significant nuclear new build going forward. Considering the economics, land
