What role do nuclear reactors play in decarbonizing Canada’s grid – and how could that change as we head into the future? That’s what we’re exploring this month’s episode with Canadian Nuclear Laboratories’ reactor technologies expert Lori Walters and economics and nuclear feasibility expert Megan Moore. With the help of these two guests, we cover the current reactor technologies, how nuclear fits into the goal of getting Canada to net-zero by 2050 and what the next generation of nuclear reactors will look like. Listen in, and you’ll learn about the importance of hybrid energy grids, what scenarios are better suited for large or small reactors and how scientists are quite literal when it comes to naming things.
