      North American construction is back—smaller and faster—at OPG’s Darlington

      “The nuclear renaissance is real here,” said Ontario Power Generation’s Subo Sinnathamby on May 8, one year to the day after OPG secured a final investment decision to build the first of four planned BWRX-300 reactors at its Darlington nuclear power plant, and shortly after the new reactor’s foundation was lifted into place. “We got our license to construct in April and our [final investment decision] in May, and we’ve been off to the races since.”

Clean Nuclear Energy for Industry: The Case for SMRs and Microreactors in Puerto Rico

June 18, 2020|12:00–1:30PM (1:00–2:30PM EDT)

All UsersAvailable to All Users



The webinar is free and open to all.

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.

Panelists

  • Shannon Bragg-Sitton, Integrated Energy Systems, Idaho National Laboratory
  • Eddie Guerra, Senior Engineer for Arup, Co-Founder of The Nuclear Alternative Project
  • Ivan Lugo, Executive Director, Industry-University Research Center
  • Luis Reyes, Chair-Advisory Board for The Nuclear Alternative Project, former U.S. NRC Executive Director for Operations

Moderator

  • Harsh Desai, ANS Young Members Group, Nuclear Energy Institute
