VOGTLE NUCLEAR FACILITY TOUR
Our delegation had the opportunity to tour the perimeter of the Vogtle Plant and participate in a control room simulation at the Vogtle Energy Education Center. This immersive experience provided valuable insights into the operations of the facility and allowed our guests to engage with staff members on site.
