Join ministers and leaders to hear about the NICE Future vision and strategies to lift up communities around the world with technical support and near-term, cutting-edge nuclear innovation. Speakers will present diverse perspectives on opportunities to harness nuclear innovations that lift up communities around the world, particularly rising communities, and to bring rapid solutions to the twin climate change and energy security crises we now face. The event includes two panels – one on perspectives of nations and their rising communities in the clean energy transition and another on building an action roadmap to accelerate these transitions. Inspired by the clean energy transformation of Pittsburgh, hear from the local congressional representative. The event celebrates the sunsetting CEM NICE Future Flexible Nuclear Campaign (FNC) for Nuclear-Renewables Integration and announces the transition to the CEM NICE Future three-year Campaign to Research the Impacts on Social Equity and Economic Empowerment (RISE3) through nuclear innovation.
