In this work, we propose and assess the potential of generative artificial intelligence (AI) as a tool for facilitating public engagement around potential clean energy sources. Such an application could increase energy literacy-an awareness of low-carbon energy sources among the public therefore leading to increased participation in decision-making about the future of energy systems. We explore the use of generative AI to communicate technical information about low-carbon energy sources to the general public, specifically in the realm of nuclear energy.

The authors have used a radio-frequency test facility (RFTF) and simulated system failures in the lab without causing a catastrophic system failure. Waveform signals have been collected from the RFTF normal operation as well as during fault induction efforts.

HVCMs are used to power the linear accelerator klystrons, which in turn produce the high-power radio frequency to accelerate the negative hydrogen ions (H). Waveform signals have been collected from the operation of more than 15 HVCM systems categorized into four major subsystems during the years 2020-2022.
