As the aftermath of the Fukushima earthquake and tsunami has unfolded, Margaret Harding, founder of  4 Factor Consulting, has been called upon by NBC, FOX News, CNN, the New York Times, and many others to explain and help bring clarity to the situation. The American Nuclear Society awarded her a presidential citation in recognition of her efforts and impact on the reporting of the events at Fukushima.

Margaret Harding has 30 years of experience in the nuclear industry – she spent many of those years at GE Nuclear Energy, departing as Vice President – Engineering Quality. She’s now a consultant to the nuclear power industry where she advises clients on a wide variety of opportunities and issues, including design and licensing, economic evaluations, impacts of Fukushima, and quality programs.

Industry Overview

Margaret Harding guest-lecturing at a nuclear engineering class at Iowa State University.  The class is focused on providing non-nuclear engineering students with a background in the technology and the industry to prepare them for potential careers in nuclear power. Margaret’s lecture was an overview of the industry and the technical background of the nuclear renaissance.
