Just like automobiles, nuclear power plants have to be “tuned up” on a regular basis to keep them running efficiently and for a long time. Westinghouse’s outage services team comprises 4,000+ dedicated men and women who safely perform the vital refueling, services, inspection and installation/modification work needed on a regular basis to keep nuclear plants in peak operating condition. Our craftspeople, engineers, welders, technicians and machinists precisely plan and time every detail of an outage to minimize interruptions in electricity generation and enable our customers to get their plants back online on schedule.

But I believe that this responsibility extends outside of the workplace. I’ve been extremely fortunate to have such strong support from leaders and colleagues throughout my career, and I am committed to providing that same guidance and support to others. That’s why I am proud to be the executive sponsor of the Westinghouse Science Honors Institute (WSHI).
