Stock market today: Wall Street gains ground as it notches a winning week and another Dow record
CORVALLIS, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec 16, 2024-- NuScale Power Corporation (NuScale or the Company) (NYSE: SMR), the industry-leading provider of proprietary and innovative advanced small modular reactor (SMR) nuclear technology, today announced the opening of its next Energy Exploration (E2) Center at The Ohio State University in Columbus to help support the development of the next generation’s nuclear workforce. This E2 Center was co-funded by The Ohio State University Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and a grant from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Nuclear Energy University Programs (NEUP). NuScale are innovative learning environments that offer users a hands-on opportunity to apply nuclear science and engineering principles through simulated, real-world nuclear power plant operation scenarios. Using state-of-the-art computer modeling within a 12-module SMR power plant control room simulator, the E2 Center allows users to assume the role of control room operator. The E2 Center will also facilitate community education on the benefits of nuclear power through demonstrations, tours to local leaders, K-12 students, and the broader public. “Building a nuclear-ready workforce is critical to the success of the clean energy transition,” said John Hopkins, NuScale President and Chief Executive Officer. “The nuclear industry is facing a shortage of skilled workers and that’s why partnerships like the one with The Ohio State University are so critical for the future. NuScale E2 centers provide truly one-of-a-kind experiences for students that we know helps foster interest and understanding of the nuclear industry and our SMR technology.” “The installation of this simulator will provide opportunities for a better understanding of how nuclear reactors can operate,” said Rob Siston, Professor and Chair, Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at The Ohio State University. “Our department is proud to support the progress toward the next generation of advanced reactor operators and the nuclear workforce.” NuScale E2 Centers operate at Oregon State University (Corvallis, Ore.), Texas A&M University (College Station, Tex.), Idaho State University (Pocatello, Idaho), University Politechnica (Bucharest, Romania), and Seoul National University (Seoul, South Korea).
