Discover why nuclear is poised to triple its capacity by 2050, how small modular reactors and innovative Gen IV designs are changing the game, and what lessons we can learn from past projects like Vogtle. Join us as we unpack nuclear’s role in complementing renewables, supporting decarbonization, and meeting skyrocketing electricity demand—all while creating high-paying jobs and revitalizing local economies. Whether you’re a tech enthusiast, policy wonk, or just curious about our clean energy future, this episode has something for you!
