About us

This website was founded as a non-profit project, built entirely by a group of young engineers. The entire website is based on our own personal perspectives and does not represent any company’s views in the energy industry.

The main purpose of this project is to help the public learn some interesting and important information about energy and the peaceful uses of nuclear energy. We realize that the basics in nuclear physics do not belong to fundamental human knowledge and the term “nuclear” often evokes a feeling of something negative or even dangerous. We do not claim this or that opinion is the only right opinion. But it is noteworthy that most nuclear engineers, people who know what nuclear means, do not connect the term “nuclear” with anything negative or dangerous.

Anyone can come here, learn the basics of nuclear physics, reactor physics, and power engineering, and should be able to answer basic questions. Feel free to ask a question, leave feedback or take a look at one of our articles. The best way to promote nuclear power is to present the facts.
