Report: New recommendations for nuclear waste
Today, a bipartisan group of experts including energy consultant Lake Barrett and former NRC chair Allison Macfarlane have published a report titled The Path Forward for Nuclear Waste in the U.S.
The report recommends a new solution for managing domestic nuclear waste—one that centers around the foundation of an independent corporation led by reactor owners. Responsibility for waste management transport, storage, and disposal would be managed by this corporation rather than the Department of Energy.

This session will explore the perspectives of utilities, partner vendors, and other commercial players involved in isotope production within North America, focusing on key isotopes such as Co-60, Lu-177, Mo-99, and Ac-225. Industry experts will discuss the medical and industrial applications of these isotopes, current challenges (including geopolitical tensions, production, handling, and transport), and cutting-edge innovations poised to shape the future landscape of this sector. The panel will underscore the importance of strategic partnerships to develop a reliable and sufficient supply of essential isotopes for the Americas, emphasizing not only the economic opportunities, but also the societal benefits of such collaborations.
