Canadians for CANDU’s Post

Without cheap and reliable base load electricity Australians will continue to suffer from a declining economy. The Nuclear Power Option must be part of the future.

Nuclear energy will play a critical role in Virginia's increasingly clean energy future. However, according to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) "to avoid the cost of a delay in advanced nuclear deployment, the industry will need to begin deploying nuclear by 2030." Virginia is leading the way by exploring new nuclear infrastructure opportunities now, helping to ensure that our clean energy future doesn't place an unnecessary burden on ratepayers.

🌍 Why Britain is lagging behind in the global nuclear power race? Check out this insightful article from The Telegraph to understand the challenges and opportunities in the UK’s nuclear energy sector. The article provides a comprehensive analysis of the country’s position, shedding light on the key factors contributing to its current standing in the global nuclear power race. A must-read for anyone interested in the energy industry and its impact on the UK's future. #NuclearPower #UKEnergy #TheTelegraph https://ift.tt/ctrN9oZ

Keir Starmer and Ed Milibrand are currently reviewing and consider to cut plans to build a new nuclear power plant at Wylfa. They are also considering to eliminate UK's ambition to build 24 Gigawatt of nuclear energy capacity by 2050. In this video we try to show why this is not a good idea. https://lnkd.in/eKqDUi8i

The US Office of Nuclear Energy has surveyed the sites of Nuclear and Coal Power Plants, and has found that more than 100Gigawatt of new nuclear capacity could be realized at those sites. In this video, I take a brief look at the magnitude of the potential. https://lnkd.in/ecf4urzn

This universal blueprint 📘can pave the way for fleet scale deployment for all nuclear technologies. As an industry, we must rise, TOGETHER to this opportunity ‼️

A shut-down nuclear power plant in Michigan could get a second life thanks to a $1.52 billion loan from the US Department of Energy. If successful, it will be the first time a shuttered nuclear power plant reopens in the US. But reopening isn’t as simple as flipping on a light switch—there are technical, administrative, and regulatory hurdles ahead before Palisades can start operating again. Here’s what it takes to reopen a nuclear power plant: https://trib.al/G42xK91

Michigan's Palisades nuclear plant, once slated for decommissioning, is prepping for a powerful comeback in 2025 thanks to a substantial $1.5 billion loan. This could set a precedent, prompting other facilities to reawaken across the nation. 💡 As global warming challenges intensify, the U.S. rethinks nuclear energy's role. Even California extended its last nuclear plant’s life, recognizing the need for stable, clean power. 🔄 With numerous U.S. reactors having shut down due to economic pressures, we're reevaluating: Could more be brought back online? Jigar Shah of the US Energy Department suggests it's a growing possibility. #NuclearEnergy #CleanEnergy #SustainablePower #ClimateCrisis #Innovation #PalisadesRestart #EnergyTransition 🌍🔌 https://lnkd.in/dbHyJF2W

Government unveils 'roadmap' for several new nuclear power plants. The government said there is 'no credible pathway to net zero without nuclear'. The government has unveiled plans it claims could bring about the country's "biggest expansion of nuclear power for 70 years". The new Civil Nuclear Roadmap describes how the UK could meet its existing target to generate up to 24GW of nuclear power by 2050. If realised, this be would be four times the current capacity and provide a quarter o...
