AI at work: Southern Nuclear’s adoption of Copilot agents drives fleet forward
Southern Nuclear is leading the charge in artificial intelligence integration, with employee-developed applications driving efficiencies in maintenance, operations, safety, and performance.
The tools span all roles within the company, with thousands of documented uses throughout the fleet, including improved maintenance efficiency, risk awareness in maintenance activities, and better-informed decision-making. The data-intensive process of preparing for and executing maintenance operations is streamlined by leveraging AI to put the right information at the fingertips for maintenance leaders, planners, schedulers, engineers, and technicians.

Gateway for Accelerated Innovation in Nuclear (GAIN) and the ANS Young Members Group invite you to discuss the feasibility of next generation nuclear reactors, SMRs and microreactors, in response to Puerto Rico's pressing energy needs and legislative interest – House Resolution 1189.
The study represents a first-of-a-kind collaborative effort – led by the Nuclear Alternative Project (NAP), a non-profit organization of Puerto Rican engineers in the nuclear industry, and is supported by nuclear developers and national labs. This study involved a team of more than 20 consultants and industry advisors.
The panelists will present the study's key findings with a special focus on applications for Puerto Rico's manufacturing sector and critical infrastructure needs.
