Making Nuclear Energy Competitive Again

Speaker: Tony Roulstone, University of Cambridge Lecturer Nuclear Engineering

In this talk, we identify the barriers to nuclear competitiveness, before examining the ways of making existing designs, the more recent SMRs and advanced technologies succeed. In each case, we look at the facts, the opportunities and the prospects for delivering the nuclear promise inherent in the resurgence of interest in nuclear energy.
