We are saddened to learn of the passing of Barry Worthington, the executive director of the United States Energy Association (USEA). Barry’s leadership and commitment to the energy sector – and to the nuclear industry – will be greatly missed. We at NEI have been fortunate to work with Barry and USEA, and had the pleasure of witnessing firsthand his unyielding commitment and dedication to energy access and innovation.
Barry has always been a champion of equal access to reliable, clean and affordable energy for not just the U.S. but the world. While we mourn, we are comforted to know that his important work will continue through the USEA’s leadership, staff and members. We extend our deepest condolences to his wife and family.
