60 Years of U: Perspectives on resources, demand, and the evolving role of nuclear energy
Recent years have seen growing global interest in nuclear energy and rising confidence in the sector. For the first time since the early 2000s, there is renewed optimism about the industry’s future. This change is driven by several major factors: geopolitical developments that highlight the need for secure energy supplies, a stronger focus on resilient energy systems, national commitments to decarbonization, and rising demand for clean and reliable electricity.
Since 1911, PowerLabs has continually provided customers quality calibrations and testing. First established under the Philadelphia Electric Company’s testing section, we have since grown and expanded our laboratory capabilities not only in metrology but in testing and analysis over the last half century. Today, PowerLabs is the primary calibration and testing laboratory for Constellation. We have labs strategically located from the upper-Midwest to the Northeast to better support the urgent demands of quality driven industries.
We maintain both A2LA Accreditations for ISO 17025 calibrations and Appendix B calibrations, assuring our technical competence as a laboratory. Many of the listed parameters and ranges here are accredited. Please see our Scope of Accreditation for each of our sites on our website. As an Approved Nuclear Supplier, we adhere to strict code requirements including 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, NQA-1 and ANSI N45.2. These guidelines are the basis for which we have built our Quality Program.
