Working together from Paris to Washington
Hash Hashemianpresident@ans.org
In November, I flew to Paris, France, to speak at the World Nuclear Exposition. This wasn’t my first time at WNE, but it’s safe to say that the 2025 Expo was markedly different from years past. Excitement was palpable, and attendance was high—there were more than 25,000 attendees and 1,000 exhibitors. This enthusiasm reflects the growing nuclear momentum across Europe.
My opening remarks at the expo spotlighted the similar nuclear momentum on this side of the Atlantic, focusing on the recent strides made by both U.S. industry and government. I also highlighted the key challenges we still face: namely, workforce development, supply chains, fuel, and financing.
