23 Jul 2025
Next-generation nuclear requires next-generation tools. Dale Goulding interviews John Nixon—vice president, global strategy, energy chemicals and infrastructure—and William Hahn—director solutions consulting—to explore the intersection of artificial intelligence, model-based systems engineering, and next-generation nuclear energy. They discuss the current state of the nuclear industry, the role of simulation in driving innovation, and lessons learned from the space sector. The conversation looks ahead to how AI and digital tools will transform energy infrastructure and technology. Takeaways We're experiencing a nuclear renaissance. AI is now an expected part of the industry. Data centers require gigawatts of power. Model-based systems engineering is crucial for complex designs. AI can significantly reduce engineering time. Integration of systems is essential for efficiency. Simulation helps eliminate rework in projects. The future of energy transmission is changing. AI will enable new advancements in engineering. Power consumption will radically change in the coming years.
