Unlocking Nuclear Potential with Generative AI

This week on Energy Unplugged, we're thrilled to welcome Sir Alex Chisholm, UK Chair of EDF and a Board Director at BT Group plc, along with Kirsty Gogan, Founding Director & Co-CEO of Terra Praxis and Managing Partner at LucidCatalyst. They'll be joining Dan Monzani, our Managing Director for the UK, Ireland, and India, for an insightful discussion on the role of nuclear power.

Prior to EDF Energy and BT Group, Sir Alex worked at the top level of the UK Government, including 4 years in charge of the business and energy department. Kirsty’s experience counts 15 years as a senior advisor to Government on climate and energy policy, including 10 Downing St and the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister.

The main topics up for discussion include the following:

• The role of nuclear in supporting data centre demand
• How to accelerate the deployment of small modular reactors, and the role of innovation in standardising their manufacturing
• The major barriers to successful new nuclear development, including funding, supply chains, skills base, and public support to this technology
