GEH BWR Expertise – Improving your Plant Management
GEH has more than 50 years in the nuclear energy industry and is the original designer of Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) nuclear power plants. To help utilities better understand the developing BWRX-300 design, GEH offers Executive BWRX-300 Training — an opportunity to see the benefits of proven GEH BWR Engineering in a new era of nuclear power. This course is specifically for executives and upper management evaluating competing technologies.
Designed to increase overall knowledge of plant and system design, operation and maintenance, the course is especially valuable for management personnel with little or no commercial nuclear experience, or to those who have prior generation PWR or BWR experience.
