Nuclear energy is becoming increasingly important as the world accelerates toward deep decarbonization, and small modular reactors (SMRs) are emerging as a pivotal solution. Their ability to deliver ...
Fireplaces are cozy until it’s time to shovel out the ashes. Nuclear power has the same problem: abundant, reliable energy paired with a growing pile of difficult-to-discard spent fuel. But a new ...
If you have a redundant nuclear aircraft carrier lying around, you can give HGP Intelligent Energy a call. The Texas-based developer wants to repurpose the nuclear reactors used to power carriers to ...
