The KJ Show Episode 131: Nuclear Fallout

In April, President Trump signed a series of executive orders aimed at revitalizing the nuclear power industry in the United States. These Executive Orders will expedite approval for nuclear power plants, reassess current regulatory and licensing requirements, and encourage the installation of Small Modular Reactors (SMRs).
 
But what is the fallout from these new orders? Will these new orders weaken the safeguards surrounding nuclear energy, or will they unleash a new type of nuclear reactor —SMRs, which have a smaller and more flexible footprint?
 
On today's show, our host, Dr. Katherine Johnson, will discuss the ramifications of these orders on the energy industry (click on the following link: The KJ Show).
