How startups can save nuclear tech A recent disturbing report predicts that despite a colossal number of new solar panels and wind turbines over the next quarter century, the planet will still face dangerous rising temperatures. Basically even if these widely embraced clean energy technologies are put on overdrive, we’re still probably screwed. The report … Continue reading How startups can save nuclear tech
Future Nuclear Power and the Thermal Storage Option Despite opposition to nuclear power generation across much of Western Europe and also across the United States, other nations that include China, India, South Africa, Japan and several Middle Eastern nations are actively planning for future nuclear power generation. India and China have access to the ores … Continue reading Future Nuclear Power and the #Thermal_Storage Option
How Much Land Does Solar, Wind and Nuclear Energy Require? ….According to the MIT authors, powering 100 percent of estimated U.S. electricity demand in 2050 with solar energy would require roughly 33,000 square kilometers (sq-km) of land. That’s if we spread solar panels evenly across the entire country. If we concentrate solar production in the … Continue reading How Much Land Does Solar, Wind and Nuclear Energy Require?
Energy Department guarantees $1.8B in loans for GA nuclear plant The Department of Energy (DOE) will guarantee $1.8 billion in loans for the operators of two new nuclear reactors under construction at a power plant in Georgia, the department announced on Wednesday. The government had previously provided $6.5 billion in loan guarantees for the Vogtle … Continue reading Energy Department guarantees $1.8B in loans for GA nuclear plant
Researchers designing nuclear power plant that will float eight or more miles out to sea Many experts cite nuclear power as a critical component of a low-carbon energy future. Nuclear plants are steady, reliable sources of large amounts of power; they run on inexpensive and abundant fuel; and they emit no carbon dioxide (CO2). A … Continue reading Researchers designing nuclear power plant that will float eight or more miles out to sea
A new look for nuclear power A nuclear power plant that will float eight or more miles out to sea promises to be safer, cheaper, and easier to deploy than today’s land-based plants. Many experts cite nuclear power as a critical component of a low-carbon energy future. Nuclear plants are steady, reliable sources of large … Continue reading A new look for nuclear power
NRC steps up oversight of Susquehanna nuclear plant Federal regulators will increase oversight at Talen Energy Corp.’s Susquehanna nuclear power plant after a recent inspection that uncovered a problem with emergency preparedness. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission said inspectors reviewing drill scenarios identified a concern on how personnel at the Susquehanna plant would determine the … Continue reading NRC steps up oversight of #Susquehanna nuclear plant
Why We Really Do Need Nuclear Power …..Nuclear Power Has an Important Role in Our Energy Mix Nuclear projects may also be granted the same support in the form of contracts for difference but that will not be to the exclusion of renewables. The task of decarbonising our energy system, still dominated by unabated fossil … Continue reading Why We Really Do Need Nuclear Power
Extra steps taken for nuclear backup systems Bridgeman, Mich. — In March 2011, a powerful earthquake struck off the east coast of northern Japan, setting off a chain of events leading to the worst nuclear power plant disaster since Chernobyl in 1986. The Fukushima I nuclear power plant was immediately shut down as a precaution. … Continue reading Extra steps taken for nuclear backup systems
Are Millstone’s Nuclear Plants Adding To The Sound’s Warming Problems? TERFORD — The Millstone nuclear plants suck in about 2 billion gallons of seawater a day to cool their reactors and then pump the heated water back into Long Island Sound, a shallow estuary scientists say has been warming for decades. The plants’ operators and … Continue reading Are #Millstone’s Nuclear Plants Adding To The Sound’s Warming Problems?
