- This site contains a Department of Energy (DOE)
database with technical information about nuclear plants around the world.
There is also information on reactor materials and links to other DOE
facilities.
-
- The NRC site provides useful information about
facilities in the United States including descriptions and drawings of plant
systems. The NRC also maintains a public document room which provides
information about licensing actions for the U.S. power plants. Information is
provided about nuclear safety questions. You can also obtain information about
nuclear plant performance on a daily basis from the various listservers
provided by the NRC.
-
- NEI is the nuclear energy industry's
Washington-based policy organization. NEI provides very useful information in
5 areas - basics, benefits, nuclear safety, uses of nuclear energy, press releases, fact sheets, special reports, Insight monthly
newsletter, other links
-
- The American Nuclear Society is the nuclear
engineering and industry professional organization. The ANS sponsors seminars
throughout the year on a variety of nuclear-related topics. A number of the
student university branches stronglt support nuclear public education efforts
on the Web.

- The Electric Power Research Institute delivers
the science and technology to make the generation, delivery, and use of
electricity affordable, efficient, and environmentally sound. Created by U.S
electric utilities in 1973, EPRI is one of America's oldest and largest
research consortia.
-
- Micro-Simulation Technology started in 1985.
This company has specialized in developing PC-based software that simulates
the performance of nuclear power plants. The software is used for education
and research, engineering analysis, probablistic safety assessment and
emergency planning in seventeen countries.
