Hydrogen has been referred to as the “Swiss army knife” of the decarbonization solution. Looking at the uses of hydrogen, the potential demand for hydrogen globally can be incredibly large. When thinking about how to produce all the hydrogen needed cleanly, nuclear becomes an obvious solution. Furthermore, advanced reactors and SMRs can be more efficient

The fusion industry today comprises 43 verified private fusion companies with $6.2 billion in investment.  There is increasing optimism on timescales, and there is growing interest from governments in public private  partnerships. Furthermore, there is a growing geographical diversity in the interests of fusion, but significant  challenges remain. The Department of Energy has announced its

Nuclear energy is largely driven by its ability to enable clean urban living. Rapid global urbanization, energy security concerns, and decarbonization of industrial sectors are all significant factors driving the shift towards nuclear energy, as nuclear is the only “always-on, emission-free small footprint” solution. Land use is a significant value addition for nuclear technologies as

Reprocessing of nuclear fuel for recycled use into reactors has traditionally not been conducted in the United States due to the poor economics of utilizing recycled fuel versus obtaining fresh fuel. However, with Advanced Fast Reactors coming towards the horizon of commercial deployment, the economics around fuel are changing to suggest that reprocessing spent fuel

Sanctions on Russia have created a large shortage of HALEU production capabilities for Western nations. The United States nuclear industry will need HALEU to support the federal activities to commercialize advanced reactors, but the industry is not currently in the position to fund the actions to establish the necessary fuel supply chain. The United States

Nuclear technologies have become a significant focus of attention as a solution to global energy concerns. The US has made significant policy changes to support the development of nuclear reactors as a strategy to improve energy security, energy equity, and energy sustainability. A study in the US showed that to achieve the deep emissions reductions
