A good narrative for nuclear power
Melbye
During an interview for Kitco News at the 2025 Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) Convention, held in Toronto in early March, the chief executive of British Columbia–based Uranium Royalty Corp. noted, “I’ve never seen a better narrative around nuclear power [and] uranium.”
CEO Scott Melbye, who is also executive vice president of Texas-based Uranium Energy Corp. and has 41 years of experience in the uranium sector, added that nuclear energy has gone from stagnation or decline to a point where it may double by 2040.
