We used a thematic approach to identify two unique groups for the frist edition of the Government Solutions and Critical Infrastructure Pulse. Government Solutions: Companies with IT expertise and systems integration/engineering experience for large scale projects. Critical Infrastructure: Companies that play an integral role in productivity growth. Their products include sensors, tools, and infrastrucutre software. This group also includes companies that specialize in electrical components and maintaining nuclear sites. This report delves into some of the key earnings themes and ownership trends from Q1.

Our CEO, Boris Schucht, discusses how #climatechange and #energysecurity have provided Urenco and the wider #nuclear industry a renewed purpose in our annual report. Read more here: https://bit.ly/3kXSGbR

Awesome to see Kim McCann talking to the NIA #Nuclear New Build Group on the opportunity for #Nuclear to compete in the new #Hydrogen economy. Confirming PA Consulting’s view that we are living in a “Complex and Connected Energy System”. Key takeaways: 1) need to consider a role beyond baseload power to grid to a broader energy ecosystem integrator role 2) this requires new partnerships beyond the traditional #Nuclear supply chain. 3) needs an understanding of the techno-economics of all the integrated value chains 4) driving down LCOE through standardisation and on time/budget delivery but recognising the criticality of leveraging “system value” #Energytransition #Nuclear #Ingenuity Julianne Antrobus Connor Deehan Adam Gait David Sanders

In the nuclear industry, sites are often very remote and difficult to reach, and have high security restrictions. So how do we make sure things are running smoothly without always having to visit in person? Virtual Site Access is transforming site operations with remote data capture and sharing. This means fewer site visits, enhanced safety, and flexible remote working. Faster decisions, less risk – what's not to love? And, this work was recently recognized at the UK Digital Construction Awards, winning Best Application of Technology!

Here is a fact that I learned and was really surprised: As of July 2023, #China had the largest absolute #clean power capacity worldwide, with a total of approximately 1.27 terawatts of #renewable and #nuclear energy installed. The United States came in second with around 503 gigawatts installed. 😲 Source: A great report from #AndereessenHorowitz predicting trends of 2024: https://bit.ly/3RXhUVx

HOT off the PRESS : The re-powering of Coal-fired Power Stations in Australia with Small Modular Reactors is very topical in our country right now. In our latest report, our technical director Tony Irwin dives deep into the facts of facilitating this energy transition. In short, re-using the existing infrastructure makes the best use of the assets and reduces costs but, more importantly, retains jobs and keeps the local community alive. #nuclearknowledge #smrs #netzeronuclear #advancedreactors #nuclearpower #nuclearelectricity #nem #auspol #energytransition #energysecurity #nuclear The Hon.
