Read a summary of this webinar in Nuclear Newswire.
The ANS University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Student Section and ANS Chicago Local Section presented a special event that exploring nuclear power in Illinois. An expert panel with broad backgrounds discussed the economic impact of nuclear power plants, how nuclear helps address climate change, efforts to keep plants open in Illinois, and the nuclear legacy in the state. You'll also hear about the lifetime of reactors, how the energy grid works, and nuclear's impact on students and the younger generation.
