Nuclear technologies have the potential to produce hydrogen at high efficiency and capacity factors and at the scale required for deep decarbonization without the space constraints of industrial-sized renewable technologies like wind and solar. While many advanced economies are working to deploy hydrogen in an effort to decarbonize, the hydrogen generation market itself can only

Public perception of nuclear energy is positive when communicating the carbon-free benefits of nuclear energy and that nuclear power is capable of generating base-load electricity. Barriers to supporting nuclear energy include popular culture’s negative representation of the technology combined with industrial accidents like Chernobyl and Fukushima. Communicating the safety aspects of nuclear technology and used

Smaller nuclear technologies offer a significant opportunity for the widespread deployment of nuclear technologies globally. While the current business model of large reactors is economically unattractive in many parts of the world due to lengthy testing and licensing, field construction, large scale size, or grid stability, small reactor technologies such as microreactors can overcome many

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78QW7hYVpmo The timing of the next generation of reactors will be critical to the nuclear industry’s ability to deliver climate change solutions. The next generation of reactors requires a new source of fuel, but the fuel may be ready before the reactors are regulated, built and commercialized. It has been suggested that utilizing existing Gen-II

Nuclear energy will be a key energy producing technology in the coming battle against climate change and greenhouse gas emissions, especially in sectors such as heavy industry and transportation. Advanced nuclear technologies offer a number of innovative characteristics that allow them to be more economical than traditional large light water reactors (LWRs). Furthermore, there is
