University of Nevada, Las Vegas Opens NuScale Power Energy Exploration (E2) Center™
NuScale's E2 Center simulator to offer hands-on nuclear science and engineering learning opportunities
CORVALLIS, Ore., April 02, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--NuScale Power Corporation (NYSE: SMR), the industry-leading provider of proprietary and innovative advanced small modular reactor nuclear technology, today announced the opening of its next Energy Exploration (E2) Center™ at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) to help support the development of a skilled nuclear-ready workforce. The E2 Center at UNLV was co-funded by a grant from the U.S. Department of Energy's Nuclear Energy University Program (NEUP).
NuScale E2 Centers are innovative learning environments that offer users an exciting hands-on learning opportunity to apply nuclear science and engineering principles through simulated, real-world nuclear power plant operation scenarios. Using state-of-the-art computer modeling within a 12-module NuScale SMR control room simulator, the E2 Center will allow students at UNLV to take on the role of control room operator, providing the chance to gain real-life experience. The E2 Center will also provide a means to conduct outreach to the community on the benefits of nuclear power through demonstrations and tours for local leaders, K-12 students, and the broader public.
"We are honored to collaborate with the faculty and students at UNLV in launching this NuScale E2 Center, highlighting the critical role of nuclear energy in shaping the future of power generation," said John Hopkins, NuScale President and Chief Executive Officer. "This facility will provide hands-on learning opportunities, spark innovation, and prepare the next generation of energy leaders to drive advancements in the field."
"The state-of-the-art small modular reactor simulator at UNLV will create a new paradigm in nuclear engineering training and research, providing our students with learning opportunities in the design and operation of modern nuclear power plants," said Alex Barzilov, Ph.D., professor of mechanical engineering at UNLV. "This laboratory adds to the growth of our nuclear engineering program and provides an innovative learning environment where students can study reactor physics and experience advanced nuclear reactor technology in a digital control room setting."
The E2 Center housed at UNLV joins a global network of nine NuScale centers at leading universities across North America, Europe, Africa, and Asia, including Idaho State University, Ohio State University, Oregon State University, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Texas A&M, University Politehnica of Bucharest, Ghana Atomic Commission, and Seoul National University.

For the first time in company history, five company drivers will receive their 4 million safe mile awards in the same year, and one driver achieved 5 million safe miles. There are only 435 drivers who have earned a plaque on the Haul of Fame wall, which underscores what a rare achievement it is and how important it is in Schneider's deep-rooted culture of safety. Driving the Future As Schneider looks ahead, it continues to invest in strategic growth areas, including intermodal and cross-border services, particularly in Mexico, as well as further organic and acquisitive growth in Dedicated services.
