All at a time when commercial nuclear power plants around the world are approaching the end of their initial operating licenses.
To help meet demand, many nuclear plants have sought to extend their operating licenses while many countries accelerate plans to build conventional and next-generation nuclear power plants for capacity replacement and growth. Major technology advancements are changing how enterprises across the nuclear power industry and its value chain plan. Opportunities across the nuclear energy sector have never been greater. Jim Gibby, Account Executive for Rockwell Automation's Nuclear & Federal Government Sector will provide an overview highlighting technologies being deployed.
