Nuclear Energy Institute’s Post

Good article explaining how innovative technologies can help lower the costs of moving to a low carbon grid.

Microsoft, Google, Nucor Corporation: Large scale energy end-users looking for large scale, reliable, clean energy technologies. Nuclear is on the top of their list to evaluate. The RFI is out too!!: https://lnkd.in/daMSpqxd Go nuclear go, apply! Time has come to move beyond conceptual stage to actual projects. There cannot be a better opportunity, when the large scale end user is ready to buy clean power. #nuclearenergy #nuclear #nuclearpower https://lnkd.in/d3NJgdsZ

As gas prices remain high and will likely continue to do so for the time being, nuclear energy could be making a comeback. In addition, more and more countries realize the lack of #renewableenergy storage when compared to increasing demand and are trying to work on battery availability. Lastly, clean or green hydrogen could be the way to go for #carbonreductionprograms. Learn more here ➡️ https://hubs.ly/Q02dnnhq0

Great read! “The answer to our world’s urgent energy needs will not be solved by excluding entire categories of energy systems. This is not an either-or solution but an everything-we-have solution.”

Without #ElectricVehicles, solar, wind, and nuclear, the global rise in emissions in the last five years would have been three times larger, new International Energy Agency (IEA) analysis shows. Looking forward to the continued growth of #renewableenergy this decade. https://lnkd.in/gjENGqvW

There are two bottlenecks to rolling out Advanced Nuclear at scale, which we will need lots of, alongside renewables, to fully decarbonize the energy supply to the global economy. The first is a permitting bottleneck - it is laborious and expensive to gain permits to deploy nuclear around the world. We addressed this at length at #CERAWeek this week and believe we can significantly enhance the speed and scale of the industry's permitting operations with targeted use of specialist Generative AI. Congratulations and well done to Henning Kilset, Neeraj Joshi, Darryl Willis and the whole team at #CERAWeek and behind the scenes to light up the impactful technology on show. The second bottleneck is the deadlock between the capital required to build mass-manufacturing capacity for SMRs and the need for a book of orders for SMRs which the manufacturing capacity would crank out. The announcement below is intended to go some way to removing this bottleneck - creating up front demand for Advanced Nuclear and other 24/7 Carbon Free energy sources so together we can push the cost boulder up and over the top of the mountain so it can begin rolling down the other side - achieving a virtuous cycle of lower costs, which stimulate higher demand, which increases economy of scale, which lower costs.. and so on. Similar to Solar's cost trajectory over the last 15 years. Congratulations to Taylor Leyden, Adrian Anderson and the team who worked on this, and to Terra Praxis, P. Todd Noe and others who have championed this direction of travel. COP28 in Dubai has been called the 'Nuclear COP' - the year the world woke up to the need and opportunity of new nuclear to meet the world's increasing energy demand with firm, clean power. I'm happy to say the same was true for #CERAWeek this year. There was a strong focus on nuclear throughout. It is clear that significant momentum is building around Advanced Nuclear. Let's get the bottlenecks cleared and realize the opportunity it is presenting us all. https://lnkd.in/eaEK72jT

Google is urging corporate clean-energy buyers to help commercialize technologies like next-generation geothermal, carbon capture and storage, advanced nuclear, hydrogen and long-duration storage: https://lnkd.in/eGsUkCnu #Chelepis #cleanenergy #google

An all of the above approach is wisdom and prudence.

In Wyoming, the energy ethos is clear: more is more and we are here to advance it all.
