Work Package Manager and technical lead for the IES & Nuclear Reactor Innovation Center (NRIC) Advanced Reactor IES Test Platform at the EBR-II Dome historical site, as well as the Nuclear Industrial Requirements, and the Nuclear Thermal Energy Storage projects under the Integrated Energy Systems (IES) Program. The U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Nuclear Energy supports the nuclear Integrated Energy Systems (IES) Program. Integrated energy systems could couple nuclear, renewable and fossil energy sources. The IES program conducts research, development and deployment of integrated energy systems that may include multiple energy inputs (e.g., nuclear, renewable, and fossil with carbon capture), multiple energy users (e.g., grid consumers, industrial heat or electricity users, transportation fuel users), and multiple energy storage options (e.g., thermal, electrical and chemical).In my new role at INL, I am proud and grateful to be part of a mission focused on the development and enhanced utilization of low- or non-emitting energy generation options within IES, to help the U.S. achieve the bold goals that have been established by the Biden administration: 100% clean energy economy and net-zero emissions by 2050.INL Biography Page: https://bios.inl.gov/Lists/Researcher/DisplayOverrideForm.aspx?ID=1083&ContentTypeId=0x0100DB1D67D981610A45BA27930D30FED203
