A new fronteer in the battery / energy production ?

Good points raised in this article from Rolls-Royce CEO. Building an Eco-system and supply chain around our energy industries is vital in order to make them flourish and be resilient. The same needs to happen for the hydrogen industry and it's not just about electrolysers; it's about all of the components that go into these plants, plus the skills within the workforce to maintain and operate them. #sustainableenergy #ukmanufacturing #energy Check out the article here: [Link to the article]

🌟 REWARD 🌟 Rewarding our employees is central to everything we do here at H9, and last week was no exception as our Managing Director Mark Hunt took our ’Team of the Year 2023’ for a celebratory breakfast at The Ivy in Manchester. It was a brilliant year for Team Power who battled against variable market conditions to produce a record collective performance led by Senior Divisional Manager Simon Miller. Our Power team consists of: Simon Miller CertRP - Mid to Senior Engineering roles across Clean Tech including EFW, Gasification, Carbon Capture and Clean Hydrogen. Lewis Hanmer - White collar contract construction/project delivery roles within the Thermal Power industry including EFW, CCGT/OCGT, Nuclear, Biomass. Lucy Sperring - Contract commercial and project controls positions across thermal power and HV/T&D/Renewable sectors, UK wide. Simon W. - All plant operations and maintenance roles across thermal power sector including EFW, Biomass, CHP, CCGT/OCGT, Nuclear. This year looks even more exciting for team power as they continue to support some of the most exciting companies across the Energy Transition movement, with huge demand for qualified professionals across all of the above markets. Here is to an even bigger and better 2024! #teamoftheyear #reward #celebration #power #h9technical #brighterfuture

Build Fusion energy generators Your talk as Nuclear (meaning only Fission) and fails to talk about fusion. https://lnkd.in/ge_aeX7M You are, as the nuclear fission industry is, ignorant of what's happening around you. Pull your uranium heads out, start adjusting your industry to fusion energy and start preparing to enter the commercially growing fusion energy industry. As it dawns on Earth like the sun. Great Headline Guardian on Nuclear fission. https://lnkd.in/g8sMZtpR Fission is moving towards obsolescence at an accelerated pace, as it is "out of step, out of time, out of place," and merely a temporary industry globally. https://lnkd.in/gbd_mZqk Commercial fusion electrical generation is a promising and innovative method of producing sustainable and clean energy. By 2028, Helion is expected to start producing electricity from its first fusion commercial power plant, which will provide electricity to Microsoft. The plant will produce at least 50 MWe after an initial ramp-up period. https://lnkd.in/gY9J3MQY Now see what news is happening in the Fusion industry in the world. https://lnkd.in/g9hMBD7a As fission trebles, fission fuel shortage is increasingly real, as linked below. https://lnkd.in/gze5rwpr

I'm really proud of my team at Enchanted Rock! Today's #EVfleets have a lot on their plates—from rapid business expansion to cost control and meeting #sustainability targets. But as delivery vehicles become electric and warehouses become more automated, relying on the vulnerable electric grid is a questionable prospect.  The grid is changing too. From intermittent renewable energy sources replacing retiring coal and nuclear baseload plants to aging equipment to more extreme weather, the grid is not as reliable as it used to be. This makes it challenging to keep the power flowing to EV fleets. Enchanted Rock's new white paper explores this issue, explaining how the grid is changing and what this means for EV fleets and business continuity. 

Important story about nuclear energy here. To get off fossil fuels and meet new electric needs, nuclear has to be part of solution.

Our journey began in the demanding world of oil, gas, and petrochemical projects, where we honed our skills in meticulous design, rigorous processes, and unwavering commitment to quality. We learned from industry giants, absorbing their wisdom and passion for engineering excellence. But our thirst for new challenges led us beyond tradition. We immersed ourselves in the electrifying pace of building Tesla's Gigafactory in Austin. The experience was a revelation, proving that speed and quality could coexist – a sweet spot we now bring to every project. Eradeh Power Consulting was born from this realization. We understand that every detail matters, but we also know when calculated risks can be taken without sacrificing safety or reliability. Our expertise allows us to navigate the delicate balance between efficiency and precision, ensuring your projects are delivered on time, within budget, and with unwavering performance. We've also witnessed firsthand the devastating consequences of power failures and equipment malfunctions. Through extensive data collection and analysis of high-severity events impacting operations, we've developed a roadmap to fortify your facilities against these threats. Our insights into power quality, reliability, and construction quality will protect your bottom line and ensure uninterrupted operations. Now, our passion for clean energy drives us towards a new frontier: the world of nuclear power. We firmly believe that this reliable, carbon-free energy source holds the key to meeting our growing electricity demands. Eradeh Power Consulting is our platform to share this journey of continuous learning and growth. We're committed to engineering excellence, power independence, and advocating for your success every step of the way.

"Diablo Canyon, California’s last nuclear power plant, provides 8.5% of in-state electricity. In 2018 the CPUC approved a plan to close the plant in 2025..." There is no way they are, or EVER will be, ready. When ignorant voters destroy the providers by passing insane legislation, you get what you deserve. The rest of the country has a chance to build micro-distribution systems generating electricity near areas of significant consumption, which makes a lot more sense than transporting energy across great distances. Of course, not all states will. #jab #insights w/ #theSKIman & #EVconcierge

Georgia’s Plant Vogtle has been named the largest generator of clean energy in the country after its fourth unit entered commercial service at the end of April 2024. It is the last of the constructed units to come online and can power half a million homes and businesses for 60 to 80 years. The plant, named after former Alabama Power and Southern Company board chairman Alvin Vogtle, is located in Waynesboro, Georgia, and is operated by Southern Nuclear. However, it’s owned by multiple entities, including Georgia Power, Dalton Utilities, and Oglethorpe Power. The site uses pressurized water reactors (PWRs) for electricity generation, and those PWRs run on uranium fuel that produces steam to drive the generators’ turbines. The news comes roughly nine months after Unit 3 was put in service on July 31, 2023. At the time, it was the country’s first newly constructed nuclear unit in nearly 30 years. The first two units at Plant Vogtle were completed in 1987 and 1989, and construction started on Units 3 and 4 in 2009. Originally, Units 3 and 4 were scheduled to start operation in 2016 and 2017, respectively, but construction fell behind schedule, causing the estimated cost of the project to go from $14 billion to over $30 billion. While Units 1 and 2 have a capacity of 2,430 MW, Units 3 and 4 were designed with 2,234 MW of capacity. With all four reactors functional, Plant Vogtle is expected to produce more than 30 million MW hours annually while preventing 10 million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions yearly. 25% of Georgia Power’s electricity generation comes from Vogtle and Georgia’s other nuclear site, Plant Hatch, in Appling County.
