Siemens Energy has secured a notable partnership with Rolls-Royce, marking a significant move in the expanding sector of small modular reactors (SMRs). Siemens Energy will be responsible for supplying turbines, a crucial component, for Rolls-Royce’s SMRs. This collaboration emerges as a strategic step in Rolls-Royce’s ambition to position its SMRs as a viable solution to energy demands and environmental concerns globally. This partnership highlights a broader trend in which energy companies are pivoting towards SMRs as a sustainable alternative to traditional nuclear power plants. SMRs are designed to address some of the longstanding issues associated with larger nuclear reactors, including…

A recent analysis conducted in southeastern Spain reveals untapped potential for hydrogen production, with unoccupied industrial zones capable of generating between 1.6 and 1.9 million tons annually, translating to energy yields of 54.76 to 63.54 terawatt-hours. Such figures highlight a significant opportunity for the industrial sector, which stands as the largest consumer and emitter of CO2, responsible for 38% of total final energy consumption and 47% of related emissions, including those from electricity and heat. With the European Union spearheading climate-neutral initiatives under the European Green Deal, the focus on reducing net greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% before…
