The future of nuclear energy | Ferry Roelofs

Nuclear energy captures our imagination: with just a tiny bit of nuclear fuel, one can produce an enormous amount of energy on a relatively small plot of land, with virtually no CO2 emission. However, nuclear energy also raises questions: how safe is it and what do we do with radioactive waste? Ir Ferry Roelofs, Account Manager Research NRG, takes us on a journey through the nuclear landscape: from water-cooled Small Modular Reactors to gas-cooled, liquid metal-, and molten salt reactors. What does the future of nuclear energy look like?
