In this episode, Michael Liebreich has a conversation with Kirsty Gogan, TerraPraxis Co-CEO and Founding Partner. Kirsty walked Michael through the headlines, as well the rise of SMR (Small Modular Reactor) technology and its potential applications. Michael and Kirsty end discussing whether nuclear is offering too little, too late on the path to net-zero in the coming decades, as renewables continue to rise to meet global energy demand. As a one-stop update on all things nuclear.
You wonder what the motivations are for these countries that are opposing the inclusion of nuclear energy in in these initiatives it's a sort of resource scarcity question? Are they afraid that the resources will be diverted away from renewables? When, really the thing that we should be focusing on on is the outcome which is that we need a lot of cleaning reliable and affordable energy
Says Kirsty.
