The next generation of reactors requires a new source of fuel, but the fuel may be ready before the reactors are regulated, built and commercialized. It has been suggested that utilizing existing Gen-II

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

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

In partnership with the Center for International Nuclear Policy and Peace Studies in Kyung Hee University (KHU) in Seoul, Republic of Korea (ROK), the Global America Business Institute (GABI), based in Washington DC, is organizing a high-level private dialogue on opportunities and avenues for civil nuclear cooperation between the United States and Korea. This workshop

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

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
