The nuclear industry is entering a renaissance, and Southwest Indiana is leading the way.
As the only location in the U.S. that manufactures the large nuclear components inside the nuclear containment vessel, Southwest Indiana’s Babcock & Wilcox facility is a truly indispensable player in the domestic nuclear industry.
Located directly on the Ohio River, Babcock enjoys Southwest Indiana’s nuclear advantages – immediate barge access for shipping heavy components, proximity to reactors in Illinois and the East Coast, and a skilled workforce ideally suited for producing nuclear certified equipment. And with Babcock preparing to deploy its new mPower modular reactor in a region full of manufacturers with the capacity to produce related parts and equipment, Southwest Indiana’s nuclear presence is poised to expand.
