Last week the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)'s Director General Rafael Grossi spoke to The World Bank on the importance of #nuclearenergy financing, calling on multilateral development banks to align themselves with the COP28 "new global consensus" and help achieve a doubling of #nuclear by 2050. "Doubling #nuclear capacity by 2050 will require a more than doubling of investments in nuclear power to $100 billion annually" is what Grossi said to his audience, urging development banks to help finance #nuclearenergy, so the world can meet climate goals by mid-century.

Enabling the maritime energy transition … Enabling the safe and compliant adoption of nuclear power in maritime. Being part of the 7th UK-Japan Nuclear Industry Forum was a pleasure and a privileged. UK Companies and Japan Companies gathered yesterday at this event, hosted by the British Embassy at Tokyo; celebrating the strong link between both countries nuclear journeys over decades, the critical collaboration that persists in supporting decommissioning and Newbuilding of “new nuclear” and expanding to support the maritime decarbonisation challenge. A magnificent encounter of the like-minded who are working to build up an industry that will support more affordable cost of energy for consumers and the ease of meeting decarbonisation targets. Nuclear green energy is now actively being discussed between Lloyd's Register and the maritime industry, working together to “get nuclear in the water”, again! Where there is passion there is “profit” for the world. Mark Tipping #nuclear #newnuclear #greenenergy #energytransition #devarbonisation #nuclearpropulsionship #nps

IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi has called on the World Bank to financially support the global expansion of nuclear power to achieve sustainable development and meet climate goals. In a recent meeting with the World Bank Group Executive Board, Grossi highlighted the critical role of nuclear energy in providing clean, reliable energy and urged MDBs to reconsider their financing policies to include support for new nuclear projects. This shift aligns with the global consensus for deep decarbonization established at COP28. #NuclearEnergy #IAEA #NetZero #CleanEnergy

“Triple Nuclear Energy” COP28 Declaration Marks New International Consensus ⚛ Over 20 countries have endorsed a goal to triple nuclear power capacity by 2050 as part of global efforts to fight climate change. The declaration marks the first time that Governments have joined together at the UN’s leading climate conference to endorse nuclear power. The countries represent nearly one-third of the world economy by Purchasing Power Parity. Overall, countries accounting for more than 75% of world’s economy now have new nuclear plans. NIA CEO Tom Greatrex welcomed the declaration, saying it "marks a new international consensus that we have to build out nuclear power at scale and at pace to hit net zero."

Which Nuclear fission or Fusion? Read up and learn and go to:- https://lnkd.in/giiHawjd https://lnkd.in/gezX5Evp https://lnkd.in/eRSHTVmb Want something that will pollute, can't be disposed of properly yet which Nuclear? Fission or Fusion? Do you believe in the greenwash of fission, have you not heard of the coming of fusion, do you not know or think about fusion and its coming? The same about the young reporter who did not know that there was an option in nuclear, that would produce more jobs, create a new industry, provide education, new exports, new value add industry in new technology and can work well with renewables all over the world, not like dumb fission and its only 39 rich developed countries think about fission as the next fossil fuel issue. The people that agree to fission and not fusion development in the world are even dumber than Australian politicians Dutton and Ted O'Brien, the Dumber and Dümmer of Australian Energy development and politics.

At the weekend leaders from around the world came together at #COP28 to make the joint declaration to triple nuclear energy capacity by 2050. This declaration marks the first time that Governments have joined together at the UN’s leading climate conference to endorse nuclear power. An historic moment. #NuclearEnergy #NuclearPower #NetZeroNeedsNuclear

The LPO and its leadership are paving the way decarbonization. In addition to working with the capital markets to make these projects bankable
“Expanded support for low-carbon electricity sources, and #nuclear in particular, have helped make it possible to extend the life of older plants across the US. “This restart of a nuclear plant represents a sea change in support for clean firm power,” says Julie Kozeracki a senior advisor for the US Department of Energy’s Loan Programs Office. As of last year, a majority of Americans (57%) support more nuclear power in the country, up from 43% in 2016, according to a poll from the Pew Research Center. There’s growing funding available for the technology as well, including billions of dollars in tax credits for nuclear and other low-carbon energy included in the Inflation Reduction Act.”

Great read from BloombergNEF, "Dead Horse, Also-Ran, or Unicorn? How Nuclear Fits With Net Zero." The graphic below is insightful. Waves of nuclear retirements will heighten urgency around backfilling generation with high-capacity factor clean energy. As the article makes clear, the innovation around advanced reactor design is largely not occurring in the same countries as deployment...will US start-ups have to deploy overseas? From Bloomberg: "Just one additional reactor is on the way in the US: Vogtle Unit 4, which is due to come online by early 2024. Still, headway is being made elsewhere around the world, with a further 56 reactors in the works. BNEF estimates a net 25 gigawatts of nuclear capacity will be added from this year to the end of the decade – roughly equivalent to the size of South Korea’s current fleet. Asia is leading the charge, most notably mainland China, which has a pipeline of 21 new reactors." #nuclear #utilities https://lnkd.in/gVdc-u98

🚢 Nuclear Power: The Future of Emissions-Free Shipping? Nuclear power could transform the maritime industry with emissions-free shipping, whilst extending the life cycle of vessels and removing the uncertainty of fuel and refuelling infrastructure development, but regulation and safety considerations must be addressed for its widespread commercial adoption, reveals Lloyd's Register’s Fuel for Thought: Nuclear report. #MaritimeIndustry #NuclearPower #SustainableShipping #Innovation https://lnkd.in/gQKyy2v8

Best invest in Building Fusion power, space, and maritime propulsion systems and industry, You talk about Nuclear (meaning Fission) and fail to discuss fusion. https://lnkd.in/ge_aeX7M 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 innovative sustainable and clean energy method. 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 is happening in the Fusion industry in the world. https://lnkd.in/g9hMBD7a As fission trebles, fuel shortage is increasingly real, https://lnkd.in/gze5rwpr
