The Power Hour is a weekly podcast that discusses the day’s most interesting energy and environmental policy issues with top national experts. Jack is joined this week by Joel Spangenberg of CORE Power to discuss the promise of using nuclear energy to power commercial ships and to provide floating nuclear power plants for emergency power or even to bring electricity to regions that lack modern energy infrastructure. Could nuclear energy be the key to reestablishing American shipbuilding leadership? Will the nations that master maritime nuclear energy be those that dominate the future? What do Russia and China think about that? Check out this conversation to find out!

The Power Hour is a weekly podcast that discusses the day’s most interesting energy and environmental policy issues with top national experts. Most of us agree that nuclear energy is safe, reliable, and clean. But one question that remains in the United States is what to do with the waste. One country that is well on its way to solving that problem is France and part of their solution is recycling it and the company that provides that service is Orano. Orano doesn’t just do work in France but are an important part of America’s commercial nuclear industry that is why Jack is excited to welcome Orano-USA CEO Jean-Luc Palayer to the Power Hour. Join Jack and Jean-Luc for a full ranging discussion on fueling American’s reactors, the potential for recycling the spent fuel to help manage nuclear waste in the United States, and much more.
