Celebrating 140 years of Westinghouse means recognizing the minds behind the milestones – including our talent acquisition professionals who shape careers and empower our people to do their best work. 👋 Meet Dallas Frey, who joined Westinghouse out of college in 1974 and retired in 2011 as Corporate Compensation & Benefits Director and HR Director at our Global Headquarters in Pennsylvania. "I always tried to find ways to help the team succeed," said Dallas. "At Westinghouse, there were always opportunities to do that because there were always great people there." #Westinghouse140 📰 Read his story: bit.ly/4rxQOm6

Building a fleet of 10 AP1000® reactors in the United States will generate enough power for more than 7.5 million American homes. The AP1000 fleet will also produce tens of thousands of multi-generational, high-paying careers and create $1 trillion in economic benefits to local communities over the next 80 years. Let's get to work building America's 21st-century energy source! Read the full report from @PwC released last week: info.westinghousenuclear.com/news/ten-unit-…

Today, we released a comprehensive, independent report detailing the significant economic impact of deploying a fleet of 10 AP1000® advanced modular reactors in the United States. The study found that the construction phase of a 10-unit AP1000 fleet can generate more than $93 billion in GDP for the U.S. and support 44,300 high-paying jobs annually for 13 years. Over its 80-year lifetime, the fleet would create an additional $1 trillion of GDP while supporting 22,500 jobs annually. Let's get to work!

We have completed the fabrication and assembly of an eVinci™ microreactor test bed designed to advance the experimental understanding of heat pipe technology. The Limits Experiment of Advanced Heat Pipes (LEAHP) is the most advanced heat pipe test bed ever constructed, providing Westinghouse with a unique capability to analyze heat pipe performance and operating limits under controlled conditions. It will generate data needed to validate analytical models and support the licensing of advanced heat pipe technologies. Our eVinci team is also nearing completion of another key experimental platform to further analyze ongoing design, testing, and licensing work for microreactors. The heat pipes that will be tested in this experiment have been shipped from our eVinci Microreactor Accelerator Hub in Etna, Pennsylvania, to another Westinghouse facility in partnership with Brayton Energy. This marks a significant milestone toward understanding heat pipe capabilities for consistent, quality controlled high temperature heat pipe fabrication.

Our Materials Innovation Team has been selected for federal funding that will help advance our eVinci™ microreactor technology. The support is coming from @ENERGY's Nuclear Science User Facilities (NSUF) Super Rapid Turnaround Experiment (RTE) program. We are working in collaboration with @ORNL's Low Activation Materials Development and Analysis (LAMDA) team to generate valuable data about the use of composite materials in future microreactor projects. It's exciting to begin this experiment with our National Laboratory partners and continue propelling advanced nuclear energy forward! Learn more about the project: nsuf.inl.gov/Home/Article/1…

You might know Westinghouse for nuclear innovation, but creativity has always been part of our DNA! For 140 years, our people have blended science with imagination – from powering the world with nuclear technology to creating lasting artwork that honors our legacy. Take a look at this painting of our founder, George Westinghouse, created by former member of our creative team, Mel Harris. 🎨 #Westinghouse140

Digital twins are digital models of physical products, systems or processes that are synchronized by data to real-world entities. They are an important new tool that can accelerate the product development cycle. Learn about how Westinghouse is using digital twins to optimize design, maintenance, and performance of our reactor technologies in the first issue of our Westinghouse Innovation Review magazine: #page=47" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">simplebooklet.com/wecinnovationm… #digitaltwins #nuclearenergy #digitaltwin

The third sector of ITER's Vacuum Vessel built at our manufacturing facility in Italy began its journey over the weekend to the future fusion site in France! This massive component is one of Europe’s five contributions to the ITER Vacuum Vessel and its delivery will bring the fusion project another step closer to reality. After departure from our Monfalcone facility in northern Italy, the sector is heading to Cadarache, France. This milestone has been made possible thanks to the collaboration of the @iterorg, @fusionforenergy, and the AMW Consortium.
