The Globe and Mail Nuclear Conference, SMR Skepticism, and the Case for Faster Nuclear Construction

  • Summary

  • In the fifth installment of The Atomic Exchange Podcast, co-hosts Dr. Goran Calic and Michael Tadrous unpack key insights from the recent Globe and Mail event on nuclear energy in Canada. The discussion explores the industry's growing momentum, the challenges of high costs and long construction timelines, and whether SMRs truly offer a faster, more affordable path forward. They also examine what it would take to dramatically speed up nuclear reactor construction and whether a full-scale plant could realistically be built in just 2.5 years. Tune in for a candid and thought-provoking conversation on the future of nuclear energy and the obstacles that still need to be overcome.
