May 31 2021 - 08:00AM
Lightbridge Corporation (Nasdaq: LTBR), an advanced nuclear fuel
technology company, today announced that Seth Grae, President and
Chief Executive Officer of Lightbridge Corporation, is
participating in a panel discussion on 'Nuclear Heat for
Decarbonization of Hard-to-Abate Sectors' during the Clean
Energy Ministerial as part of the Nuclear Innovation: Clean Energy
Future (NICE Future) Forum on May 31-June 4, 2021. The panel video
is available now at Clean Energy Ministerial, and is part of the
Clean Energy Ministerial 12 program of events.
Joining Mr. Grae in the panel discussion are
esteemed nuclear colleagues Kirsty Gogan, Eric Ingersoll, and Nobuo
Tanaka. The panel will discuss how existing industrial capabilities
in the oil and gas sectors, combined with a new generation of
advanced reactors (advanced heat sources), can be re-deployed to
fully and cost-competitively decarbonize industrial heat, cement,
aviation, and shipping by mid-century.
As an international initiative of the Clean
Energy Ministerial, The NICE Future initiative leads the global
conversation on the roles nuclear energy can play in clean energy
systems of the future. Rather than focus on specific technologies
or issues, the NICE Future aims to address nuclear energy
holistically within the context of broader clean energy systems,
moving nuclear energy from traditional, nuclear-only fora to
broader, cross-sectoral discussions about clean energy at the
ministerial and working levels in more countries.
