ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This very special episode of Beyond Policy features a roundtable discussion focused on the energy landscape in South Carolina, highlighting the state's growth, the challenges faced by the nuclear energy sector, and the importance of energy in both economic development and national defense.
We were pleased to be joined by a very distinguished panel: Congresswoman Sheri Biggs (SC-03), Dr. Jody Lipford (professor at Francis Marion University), Michael Mule (partner with SURGE Public Affairs), Susie Shannon (President & CEO of SC Competes), Brigadier General Robin Stilwell (Adjutant General of South Carolina), and Rick Todd (President & CEO of the SC Trucking Association).
We discuss the lessons learned from the VC Summer nuclear project, the future of nuclear energy, the role of artificial intelligence in energy solutions, and the significance of energy security for military operations.
The enlightening conversation emphasizes the need for competitive energy pricing and workforce development to attract industries and support economic growth.
