Nuclear Power Institute

Description

Concerns about rising electricity demand and clean air are among the factors driving interest in nuclear technology. Nuclear energy is the only electricity source that can generate electricity 24/7 reliably, efficiently and with no greenhouse-gas emissions. NPI is developing the human resources and preparing the workforce for the current nuclear power plants and the potential new reactors to be built in Texas and around the country. These vital workforce needs are being met through a broad partnership with industry, two year community and technical colleges, four year universities, high schools, middle schools, science and math teachers, state government, Federal agencies, and elected and civic leaders.
