Nuclear energy has long stood at the intersection of promise and controversy. From concerns over safety and public perception to its evolving place in global clean energy strategies, the conversation around nuclear is rarely straightforward. In this episode, Girish Shivakumar sits down with Richard Orlington of Radiant Energy Group — a veteran energy analyst tracking the global power sector — to separate fact from fiction.
We explore:
Why nuclear’s public narrative has shifted from weapons and accidents to clean, firm energy
The lifecycle and real timelines behind nuclear project development
How energy policies around the world are beginning to re-embrace nuclear
