2023 ANS Annual Meeting Speaker
The Honorable Jeffrey S. Merrifield, the leader of Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP’s Energy practice group and a former presidential appointee to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, is widely recognized as an international thought leader on nuclear power and the deployment of complex energy systems for the avoidance of carbon generation.
During his three decades of involvement in the energy industry, Jeff has developed wide-ranging relationships throughout the international nuclear community that allow him to identify strategic and legal solutions for major energy and environmental matters. He is recognized as a leader in advanced nuclear deployment and has assisted large and developing nuclear utilities, suppliers and governments in effectively meeting their regulatory requirements and strategic objectives regarding the deployment of complex energy systems. Jeff's well-received corporate executive experience as well as media and public speaking capabilities also provide a significant resource for the advocacy of common-sense and cost-effective solutions.
