My story: Stanley Levinson—ANS member since 1983
Levinson early in his career and today.
As a member of the American Nuclear Society, I have been to many conferences. The International Conference on Probabilistic Safety Assessment and Analysis (PSA ’25), embedded in ANS Annual Meeting in Chicago in June, held special significance for me with the PSA ’25 opening plenary session recognizing the 50th anniversary of the publication of WASH-1400, which helped define my career. Reflecting on that milestone sent me back to 1975, when I was just an undergraduate student studying nuclear engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) in Troy, N.Y., focusing on my mechanics, fluids, and thermodynamic classes as well as my first set of nuclear engineering classes. At that time—and many times since—the question “Why nuclear engineering?” was raised.

The Net-Zero Government Initiative set forth by the current administration invites national governments to achieve net-zero emissions by no later than 2050 from national government operations. As a result, the current US administration’s goal of meeting net-zero emissions in all federal infrastructure operations by 2050 has led to a push to deploy clean energy sources. The Department of Energy seeks to accelerate the deployment of advanced reactors through the Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program to increase clean energy options. This potential surge in deploying advanced reactors requires identifying any nuclear fuel and component supply chain issues. This panel will discuss how supply chain issues are being identified and resolved to support the deployment of advanced reactors to meet clean energy goals.
