Presented by the ANS Operations and Power Division
In 2021, over 20% of US electricity generation came from coal and much of that generation is scheduled for retirement over the next decade. Advanced nuclear technologies represent an emissions-free alternative to coal that is currently being pursued at some domestic coal sites and the opportunity exists for additional projects in the future. An expert panel will discuss the challenges that still remain to unlock the full potential of a large-scale coal to nuclear transition in the U.S.
