How Retired Nuclear Power Sites in the U.S. Could Fuel Net Zero by 2050. Learn how collaboration will be required between utilities, communities, and policymakers to determine the viability of building new reactors >> https://lnkd.in/g7xTuh94 As the world works toward a net zero future, nuclear power has the potential to play a crucial role. By tapping into existing infrastructure, speeding up the licensing process, and exploring coal-to-nuclear transitions, the U.S. can significantly expand its clean energy capacity. #nuclearenergy #nuclearpower #nuclearcapacity #microreactors #smr #departmentofenergy #carboncredits #carbonemissions #carbonoffsets #carbonprices #carbonpricing #carbonscapture #carbonmarkets #carbonnews #carbonprices #carbonremoval #ccs #ccus #cdr #climatechange #cleanenergy #decarbonization #emissionsreduction #energytransition #esg #greenhydrogen #ghgemissions #netzero

There are several nuclear power plants currently being built or planned in the United States.

New Blog Post! Stephen Edelblut discusses how many Americans are passionate about environmental concerns and renewable energy but remain skeptical of nuclear energy. If Americans want to move towards a greener future, we should begin allowing the NRC to encourage the development of Nuclear Energy recycling plants in the United States. #NuclearWaste #NuclearRegulatoryCommission #NRC #Nuclearproliferation #Offsitewastedisposal #RadioactiveDisposal #5thCircuit

As the Original Equipment Manufacturer of CANDU technology, explaining the merits of nuclear power is an important part of my job at AtkinsRéalis, and one I enjoy. Increasingly, journalists have taken an interest in the technology; the nuclear renaissance, the energy transition, and government interest in life extension of CANDU assets or even in building new ones, likely explains why.   In speaking to Paul Day from Reuters, I explained the unique features of CANDU technology that lend themselves well to life-extensions (think of replacing the engine in a really good car). I also had the chance to talk about our new, 1,000 MW CANDU MONARK reactor- the most powerful and advanced CANDU unit ever conceived.   https://lnkd.in/gGgEbgpS   #CANDUforCanada #NetZeroNeedsNuclear

On September 20th, Microsoft announced a 20-year deal with Constellation Energy to buy nuclear power from Three Mile Island’s Unit 1 once it’s reopened. As clean energy demand grows, experts consider the logistics, safety, and the potential of using old sites for advanced reactors where refurbishing existing ones may not be possible.
