The Future of Nuclear Maritime Propulsion is the second in a series of sessions sponsored by DESD. At the 2023 Winter Meeting we will discuss the potential future of non-naval nuclear propulsion and floating offshore nuclear power generation, the opportunities for cutting greenhouse gas emissions, and the challenges with licensing these vessels for international commerce. Recent Department of Energy grants have spurred interest in this subject. These grants and other opportunities will also be discussed during this session.
