Mission

Major Activities

Activity 2

The main focus of SCGI activities has been in educating both the public and policy makers about the revolutionary potential of the Integral Fast Reactor (IFR), a nuclear power technology that can provide clean, reliable and affordable energy and resolve the nuclear waste problem by using the waste as fuel. The entire worlds current and projected energy needs could be met solely by this technology for several hundred years with fuel that is already out of the ground and available. All the other technologies that SCGI deals with can ultimately be powered by IFRs. The president therefore spent the majority of his time collaborating with scientists, environmental activists, power company officials, and government figures in an effort to promote this technology. In 2012 this required travel for meetings in Minnesota, Texas, Washington DC and Virginia, as well as Great Britain, Sweden and Russia.

Activity 3

In late October 2012, SCGI organized a presentation on fast reactors and other advanced nuclear technology at a three day conference in Dubai. It was sponsored by the World Bank and UN-affiliated World Energy Forum with the goal of promoting Safe, Accessible, Sustainable Energy for All. The conference was attended by delegates from 89 countries and included many heads of state and energy ministers. The panel included prominent experts from Russia, Australia and the USA. The presentation provided an opportunity to explain the many advantages of the IFR as well as focus on the roll it could play in enhancing energy security while minimizing concern over nuclear weapons proliferation. The president of the World Energy Forum has asked SCGI to assist in organizing next years conference and recruited SCGIs president to join its board of directors.
