About this episode

This episode explores how nuclear power can be financed commercially and built more efficiently, featuring insights from Jake Jurewicz of Blue Energy.

In this episode The Green Insider, we sit down with Jake Jurewicz , co‑founder and CEO of Blue Energy , to explore how nuclear power can finally be built faster, cheaper, and financed commercially. Jake shares how Blue Energy is adapting proven construction and financing models from the oil, gas, and LNG industries to unlock private capital for small modular nuclear plants. We focus on Blue Energy’s first project at the Port of Victoria, Texas , their modular, prefabricated construction approach, and why fixed‑price contracts are key to making nuclear financeable. Jake also addresses nuclear safety, regulatory progress, and why nuclear power is well‑positioned to support data centers, AI growth, and grid stability. This conversation offers a practical look at how nuclear energy could scale in the U.S. — and globally — to meet rising energy demand while strengthening energy security.
