MEETING 6: Multilateral Nuclear Energy Dialogue – Developing an Institutional Framework for Expanded Global SMR and Advanced Reactor Deployments

By |2022-01-04T13:04:54-05:00August 31st, 2019|Categories: Multilateral Nuclear Energy Dialogue, Nuclear Energy|0 Comments

August 26-29, 2019, GABI organized high-level private workshop among a multinational group of experts (US-Korea-Japan-Canada) to discuss the development of innovative institutional models and frameworks to facilitate the global deployment of small modular/advanced reactors, initially from the perspectives of prospective vendor countries. This meeting built upon GABI¡¯s history and experience with its trilateral nuclear energy

GABI-FNS Capitol Hill Briefing – Integrated Hybrid Energy Systems: Nuclear-Renewable-Thermal Synergies

By |2022-01-04T13:33:28-05:00June 28th, 2019|Categories: Clean Energy Forum and Seminars, Congressional Briefing, Events, New and Renewable Energy, Nuclear Energy|0 Comments

Increasing penetrations of ever affordable renewable energy, while helpful in mitigating carbon and other atmospheric emissions, are effecting growing challenges related to grid management, power reliability, and dispatchability. With recent advances in control and communications networks, reactor designs, and carbon capture, the integration of various low-carbon energy generation technologies has the potential to concurrently achieve

Russian and Chinese Approaches to Civil Nuclear Exports: Responding to the Competitive Landscape and Implications for U.S. Foreign Policy

By |2019-06-17T12:20:10-04:00June 17th, 2019|Categories: Events, Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Energy Workshops|0 Comments

Russia and China are quickly and aggressively marketing their civil nuclear technologies throughout the world. For emerging nuclear markets, such as in the Middle East and Sub-Saharan Africa, the comprehensive nature of Russian and Chinese civil nuclear packages—which includes financing, equity, operations, training, long-term support, fuel cycle services, and other side benefits—is very appealing. The

Prospects for SMR and Advanced Reactor Deployment in Sub-Saharan Africa

By |2019-06-11T17:38:06-04:00June 11th, 2019|Categories: Events, Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Energy Workshops|0 Comments

There has been widespread interest in the development of civil nuclear programs in Africa. Africa, and Sub-Saharan Africa in particular, has never been viewed as a robust market for nuclear power, at least partly because conventional plants are perceived as too costly and inflexible to be practical. However, with the emergence of SMRs and advanced

Although the Moon Jae-In administration initially announced a long-term phase out of nuclear energy in South Korea, in reality, the government appears to be instead working towards reducing the proportion of nuclear in the national energy mix and continues to support exports of the country’s civil nuclear technology. South Korea’s civil nuclear capabilities can also

Demystifying the Part 810 Authorization Process

By |2019-04-29T12:12:32-04:00April 29th, 2019|Categories: Events, Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Energy Workshops|0 Comments

Part 810 export control regulations, which deal with the transfer of unclassified nuclear technical information and assistance, are handled by the Department of Energy. Recent Part 810 authorizations for Saudi Arabia were conducted in accordance with law, despite claims by the media that the White House was illegally circumventing export control rules in permitting nuclear

President Trump views energy, technology, and environmental policy largely through the lens of manufacturing, infrastructure, and trade: his ultimate goal is to support and maintain America’s competitive edge in industry. Contrary to popular perception, President Trump does support clean energy and innovation, particularly based on the rationales of national security and manufacturing competitiveness—for example, President
