114: Engineering Nuclear Safety: Risk, Reliability, and the Role of PRA

How do we assess the safety and resilience of nuclear systems? In this episode, PRA & Risk Analysis Engineer Jenifer Avellaneda Díaz breaks down the evolving world of Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) — from lessons learned after nuclear accidents to its growing relevance in SMRs and the AI-driven future of energy.

We also explore how PRA supports innovation, builds public trust, and informs long-term energy decisions.
