Nuclear Renaissance


Two concerns of the energy industry are rust and our lack of people. According to the Nuclear Energy Institute, 104 nuclear reactors power one-fifth of America’s electricity and represent over 70 percent of the nation’s emission-free generation portfolio. And this demand for electricity will grow by at least 40 percent by 2030. With all this demand nuclear plants will need to be created or rebuilt.

However, the biggest cost to nuclear power plant construction is administration and the Nuclear Energy Institute’s 2007 nuclear work survey suggested that 35 percent of current nuclear utility employees will be eligible to retire within five years.

About Coreworx

If it involves thousands of engineers and costs more than a billion dollars to build — like a nuclear power plant, uranium mine, or oil well — it's probably a project that should be managed with Coreworx software. Today more than 50,000 engineers are using Coreworx software to improve the efficiency of the design, construction, and commissioning of large capital projects.

Based in Waterloo, Ontario, and partnered with Microsoft to reach around the world, Coreworx has grown to dominate the high end of this industry.
