Director of Technology Strategy
USNC
Dr. Cristian Rabiti joined USNC as Director of Technology Strategy. He is currently focused on developing the U.S. market and framing the Micro Modular Reactor technology in the context of the integrated energy systems. He is also engaged in modeling and simulation activities to support the licensing of Micro Modular Reactors.
Prior to joining USNC, Dr. Rabiti worked at Idaho National Laboratory where he led the development and application of tools for technoeconomic analysis of integrated energy systems. He explored how nuclear energy could be used to achieve a decarbonized and affordable U.S. energy system. Previously, he was involved in software tool development for nuclear reactor core simulations. Before joining Idaho National Laboratory, he served as a neutron transport software developer at Argonne National Laboratory.
Dr. Rabiti received a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from the University of Stuttgart in Germany, and an Executive MBA from IE Business School in Madrid.
