Taking shape: Fusion energy ecosystems built with public-private partnerships
It’s possible to describe fusion in simple terms: heat and squeeze small atoms to get abundant clean energy. But there’s nothing simple about getting fusion ready for the grid.
Private developers, national lab and university researchers, suppliers, and end users working toward that goal are developing a range of complex technologies to reach fusion temperatures and pressures, confounded by science and technology gaps linked to plasma behavior; materials, diagnostics, and electronics for extreme environments; fuel cycle sustainability; and economics.
Executive Session|Panel
Tuesday, November 15, 2022|3:15–5:00PM MST|Eucalyptus
Session Chairs:
Julianne McCallum (Data and Analysis Specialist, Nuclear Energy Institute)
Benjamin Cipiti (Principal Member of the Technical Staff, Sandia)
Session Organizers:
Alexandra Siwy (Nuclear Engineer, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission)
Rani Franovich (Senior Policy Advisor to the Nuclear Energy Innovation team, Breakthrough Institute)
Prasad Kadambi (Director, Kadambi Engineering Consultants)
We hear about the innovations in the advanced reactors space and the need to support the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission as we work to deploy new reactors. How is the industry discussing the modernization of licensing frameworks to be risk-informed and performance-based for the future of advanced reactors? Join us for a panel discussion.
