      Hinkley Point C gets over $6 billion in financing from Apollo

      U.S.-based private capital group Apollo Global has committed £4.5 billion ($6.13 billion) in financing to EDF Energy, primarily to support the U.K.’s Hinkley Point C station. The move addresses funding needs left unmet since China General Nuclear Power Corporation—which originally planned to pay for one-third of the project—exited in 2023 amid U.K. government efforts to reduce Chinese involvement.

Talking About Low-dose Radiation Risk

January 21, 2021|11:00AM–12:00PM (12:00–1:00PM EST)

MembersANS Members Only


ANS Members, please log in to watch this webinar.


Join us for a special Q&A with an expert panel as they discuss how to communicate about the risk of low-dose radiation. This free members-only event is a follow-up to the “Risky Business” President’s Session that took place during the ANS Virtual Winter Meeting in November (watch the session below). The session will take a deeper dive into the many questions generated from the thought-provoking discussion.

Topics addressed will include:

  • How do we get “Reasonable” put back into the implementation of ALARA? What government/industry players must come together to make this happen?
  • What can scientists/engineers do to help dispel myths about radiation and nuclear and explain their benefits?
  • What can we learn from how other industries manage risk?

  • Amir A. Bahadori, PhD, Kansas State University
  • Donald A. Cool, PhD, Electric Power Research Institute
  • Shaheen Dewji, PhD, Texas A&M University
  • Paul Locke, MPH, JD, DrPH, Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health

Moderator

  • Mary Lou Dunzik-Gougar, PhD, ANS President, Idaho State University
