      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.

Dr. Arielle Miller

Dr. Miller is a Black woman of mixed race – Sicilian, African American, and Jewish. She attended Northwestern University in the Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps, receiving a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Physics and her commission in the US Navy in 2003. She served five years as a nuclear-trained surface warfare officer. She is also a service-disabled veteran, having served in Operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom.
She holds a master’s degree in Nuclear Engineering from North Carolina State University and a doctorate in Mechanical Engineering from Howard University. She is the third woman in Howard University’s history to receive a doctoral degree in Mechanical Engineering.
For the past seven years, Dr. Miller has worked for the federal government, first in nuclear safety oversight and now as a leader in innovation. In 2020, she co-founded the MGAM Scholarship Foundation, a non-profit scholarship program for young Black and African American women entering college.

MIDN W. M. Schleper

MIDN Schleper enlisted in the United States Navy following high school in 2019. He served for two years, finishing nuclear training and receiving orders to the USS Idaho, then being built. He was accepted to the US Naval Academy in June 2021. MIDN Schleper credits his enlistment for his being accepted at the Academy. He is also President of the American Nuclear Society Student Section at the Academy.

Julie McCallum
