Cristina Talako is joined by panelists, Dr. Rita Barron-Wall, Dr. Jennifer Gordon, and Lenka Kohler, to discuss small modular reactors (SMRs) and their applications, safety considerations, and economic benefits compared to other low-carbon options. We also explore how nuclear energy can support the integration of renewable energy sources in the grid and examine the deployment of SMRs in different countries, including potential next steps for Australia.

Tune in to gain insights from these female experts in the field of clean tech and nuclear energy.
