“Nuclear Energy’s Place in Power Generation”
Seth Grae, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Lightbridge Corporation (https://www.ltbridge.com/), will describe nuclear energy’s historical context and its current status, to include the remarkable performance of existing plants, next-generation nuclear technology, economic opportunities in the nuclear renaissance, the political and regulatory developments that are accelerating deployment, key market drivers (such as AI, data centers and security), and investment opportunities within the field.
Seth has been a member of the company’s Board of Directors since its formation in October 2006, He leads Lightbridge’s efforts to develop nuclear fuel technology to improve the safety, economics, and proliferation resistance of existing and new power reactors, including small modular reactors. Lightbridge’s proprietary fuel technology promises to make nuclear power—a reliable source of clean power—more competitive.
Seth is also chairman of the American Nuclear Society’s International Council and is a member of the World Economic Forum’s Advanced Energy Solutions Community. He is a member of the board of directors of the Nuclear Energy Institute. Seth is a frequent speaker about nuclear power at international conferences and at universities. He led Lightbridge’s advisory roles to governments of countries seeking to start or expand nuclear power programs, from feasibility studies through procurement and operations.

In volunteer roles through NGOs, Seth previously helped advise governments in drafting nuclear export control laws, including China and Belarus.
