A new study assesses global small-scale nuclear power reactor deployment suitability, finding that reactors in the 1–50 MWe range could serve 70.9% of …
* Meralco and USNC sign cooperative agreement to study the deployment of one or more Micro-Modular™ Reactor (MMR®) Energy Systems in the Philippines * Work under this agreement will examine environmental and social impact, technical and siting requirements, and commercial viability, among other topics * Agreement paves the way …
These advanced reactors, envisioned to vary in size from tens of megawatts up to hundreds of megawatts, can be used for power generation, process heat, desalination, or other industrial uses. SMR designs may …
for small modular reactors that in some cases have been supported by the Department of Energy are at later stages of development.) Before a reactor can be deployed, many years of careful planning and close coordination between reactor designers and regulators are required. How far along any given design is depends on the proposed technical ...
Zap raised $ 27. 5 million in Series B funding in 2021 for its fusion energy technology in a round led by Addition. The company envisions a camper-size fusion reactor providing 200 megawatts of thermal energy. Riordan contends that Avalanche''s small scale gives it an advantage over these much larger players.
This tiny radioactive battery can last 50 years without ...
A new microreactor, eVinci, developed by Westinghouse, has an amazing feature. It can function without water, paving the way for nuclear power to reach far-off locations where water might be scarce.
Late last year, the US energy company NuScale announced it was pulling the plug on a small modular reactor (SMR) project in the western state of Idaho. The project—the sole SMR design yet to be approved by the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission—faced exploding costs that took the estimated price from $5.3 billion up to …
We were promised smaller nuclear reactors. Where are they?
Some small reactor designs incorporate fully passive safety and risk-management systems that rely on the steady, immutable laws of physics—like gravity or buoyancy—to perform safety functions ...
Digital transformation is driving the future of the economy, and that driver needs fuel. An expanding array of potential future microgrid customers, particularly those in information technology and data center industries, are favoring development of advanced and small modular nuclear (SMR) reactors to connect sustainability and power reliability …
The Micro Modular Reactor (MMR) Energy System is a 4th Generation nuclear energy system that delivers safe, clean, and cost-effective electricity to users anywhere. MMR is …
