In Episode 328 of The Green Insider, host Mike Nemer sits down with Swapan Kataria, chairman of Thorium Atomic Power Corporation, to explore the future of thorium nuclear energy in the global energy transition. The conversation covers advanced nuclear reactors, LNG market shifts, baseload power demand, nuclear fuel recycling, energy security, and the regulatory barriers affecting next-generation nuclear deployment. Swapan explains why he moved from LNG development into thorium-based nuclear innovation, how thorium compares with uranium on cost and availability, and why countries like India and Indonesia may move faster than the United States in scaling new nuclear technologies.

The Green Insider — Episode 328

In this episode, you’ll learn:

Why Crown LNG paused its U.S. LNG project and shifted attention to international energy infrastructure opportunities.
How thorium nuclear energy differs from uranium in availability, economics, and long-term fuel-cycle potential.
Why advanced nuclear reactors and thorium technology could support reliable baseload power and grid stability.
How spent nuclear fuel recycling could expand usable energy resources and reduce long-term waste challenges.
Why India and Indonesia may emerge as early markets for thorium reactor development and deployment.
What U.S. nuclear permitting, regulation, and project development hurdles still slow next-generation nuclear energy.
