China’s Clean Energy Transition: A Complex Calculus Between Growth, Security, and Decarbonization Chinese carbon emissions have shown a rare contraction…
Britain’s nuclear sector faces deployment delays of up to a decade compared to peer nations due to what the UK’s Nuclear Taskforce describes as “unnecessarily slow, inefficient and costly” regulation.
HD Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) and HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering (HD KSOE) have received an Approval in Principle (AIP) from the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) for a floating power module powered by a small modular reactor (SMR).
First Hydrogen Corp. is positioning itself at the convergence of two major transformation vectors: clean hydrogen and small modular nuclear reactors (SMRs). The company has announced a research collaboration with Professor Muhammad Taha Manzoor of the University of Alberta, targeting the design optimization and fuel material development for SMRs—an increasingly strategic energy source amid ballooning power demand from AI data centers.
NuScale Power Corporation has recently garnered approval from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for its enhanced 250 MWt (77 MWe) NuScale Power Modules.
With electricity demand expected to surge by 26 GW by 2035, the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) has positioned itself at the forefront of U.S. small modular reactor (SMR) development, filing a permit application to build the country’s first commercial-scale SMR at its Clinch River site in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
A global dataset of 5,360 large infrastructure projects reveals that virtually no energy sector escapes budgetary slippage—but nuclear infrastructure stands out as the most financially volatile.
Canada has taken a critical step forward in its nuclear energy strategy with formal approval for the construction of the nation’s first small modular reactor (SMR), the BWRX-300. The project, located at Ontario Power Generation’s (OPG) Darlington site,will see GE Vernova Hitachi Nuclear Energy (GVH) begin work immediately.
