Episode 35: Going Nuclear - The Future of Energy with Jay Surina, Managing Director at Pelican Energy Partners

One area that seems to be overlooked in the energy transition is nuclear energy. This is an existing zero-emission technology that currently provides over 18% of electrical capacity in the US. At the most recent COP 28 gathering of nations to address global climate change, a declaration was signed to triple nuclear capacity by 2050. 

This is a really big deal. We’ve invited Jay Surina, Managing Partner at Pelican Energy to educate us on the current state of nuclear energy. What Jay has to say may surprise you. New reactor designs promise to expand nuclear power tremendously. Cheaper, emission-free baseload energy could be a game changer for the global economy.
