Rare Look inside Jamaica’s ONLY Nuclear Reactor
In this video, we go inside Jamaica's ONLY nuclear reactor located at the University of West Indies (ICENS Facility). Invited to the island nation for a Small Modular Reactor symposium hosted by Dr. Charlyne Smith, this was indeed a special moment to share insights about nuclear technologies, educate and inspire the next generation of young energy professionals in Jamaica. Also, getting the opportunity to meet nuclear professionals from across the world, as well as explore the UTECH or University of Technology Jamaica.
