Nuclear & Energy Systems Engineering

Energy Research, Inc. is a Maryland-based scientific, engineering, and technology firm delivering engineering analysis, management consulting, and applied research across nuclear energy, conventional energy, space systems, and risk assessment.

01 — About

An independent technical voice in nuclear engineering.

Founded to provide sponsors and regulators with analysis they can rely on — free of the incentives that shape a vendor's own testing.

ERI is an international scientific, engineering, and technology company headquartered in Maryland. The firm's work spans engineering analysis, management consulting, and scientific research applied to nuclear energy, conventional energy, space systems, and environmental systems.

Much of ERI's practice centers on probabilistic risk assessment and risk management — disciplines built on quantifying what could go wrong, by how much, and how confidently that estimate can be trusted, whether the system in question is an operating power reactor or a next-generation design still on the drawing board.
