Here are some highlights:
3:00 - reasons nuclear is important: reliability, availability, and footprint
7:30 - addressing safety concerns
11:45 - an update on the restart of Michigan's Palisades nuclear power plant
15:45 - modern upgrades for operations and safety
17:30 - where things stand with Palisades - power generation once again in about a year
19:45 - the potential addition of small modular reactors at Palisades - transmission is the key
21:45 - emergency response
