  • 112: Inside the World Nuclear Association: Global Perspectives on Nuclear’s Role in the Energy Transition ft. Dr Sama Bilbao y León
    2025/07/06
    In this episode of the Mission Shunya podcast’s nuclear energy series, we step into the global arena with Dr. Sama Bilbao y León, Director General of the World Nuclear Association (WNA) — the body that represents the worldwide nuclear industry.

    From COP28’s commitment to triple nuclear capacity by 2050 to regional differences in policy, deployment, and public perception, Dr. Sama brings a global systems-level view to the nuclear dialogue. We unpack the role of WNA in shaping international frameworks, supporting industry collaboration, and navigating the complex balance between advocacy, public trust, and regulatory realities.

    This conversation also explores:
    • What the World Nuclear Association actually does and how it operates
    • How nuclear is being positioned in national energy strategies across regions
    • The post-Fukushima decade and nuclear’s narrative shift
    • Whether institutions like WNA carry inherent biases, and how they deal with them
    • Public perception, misinformation, and the role of transparency

    As always, the goal of this series is to approach nuclear energy with a neutral lens — asking informed, critical questions while staying open to where the answers lead.

    So whether you’re a nuclear skeptic, supporter, or still forming your opinion, this episode offers the global context you need to understand where the sector is — and where it’s going.

    Next up: We head into the world of fusion with Renaissance Fusion — a deep dive into how Europe is tackling fusion energy differently.

    Mission Shunya is a podcast that brings you stories at the intersection of sustainability, technology, and the energy transition — hosted by Girish Shivakumar.

  • 111: The Case for Nuclear: Myths, Facts, and Its Role in a Zero-Carbon Future ft. Richard Ollington, Radiant Energy Group
    2025/05/24
    Nuclear energy has long stood at the intersection of promise and controversy. From concerns over safety and public perception to its evolving place in global clean energy strategies, the conversation around nuclear is rarely straightforward. In this episode, Girish Shivakumar sits down with Richard Orlington of Radiant Energy Group — a veteran energy analyst tracking the global power sector — to separate fact from fiction.

    We explore:
    • Why nuclear’s public narrative has shifted from weapons and accidents to clean, firm energy
    • The lifecycle and real timelines behind nuclear project development
    • How energy policies around the world are beginning to re-embrace nuclear
    • The role nuclear can play in stabilizing the grid alongside renewables
    • Common myths that continue to hold back progress in the sector
    • What the data actually shows about nuclear’s cost, safety, and scalability

    Richard brings a rare systems-level view of the energy transition, blending technical insight with global policy awareness. Whether you’re pro-nuclear, anti-nuclear, or undecided, this episode offers a balanced, data-driven lens through which to understand nuclear’s evolving role.

    New episodes drop every two weeks. Follow the show and stay tuned for more conversations unpacking the nuclear puzzle.

  • 110: Nuclear Energy 101: Science, Safety & Its Role in a Net-Zero Future ft. Dr. Paul Cosgrove, Cambridge Nuclear Energy Centre
    2025/05/10
    What exactly is nuclear energy? How do nuclear power plants work? And are the concerns about safety still valid today?

    In this foundational episode of the Mission Shunya nuclear series, host Girish Shivakumar sits down with Dr Paul Cosgrove, nuclear energy researcher from the University of Cambridge to unpack the basics. From the science of nuclear fission to modern safety protocols and global shifts in energy policy, this conversation lays the groundwork for understanding nuclear energy's place in the clean energy transition.

    Whether you're a skeptic, a supporter, or simply curious, this is your starting point to make sense of the ‘N’ word in net zero.
