NuScale’s E2 Center offers hands-on learning
opportunities to apply nuclear science and engineering principles
in simulated nuclear power plant operation scenarios
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 E2 Centers 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). Learn more about NuScale E2
Centers.
