Several countries are now eyeing a strategy for using nuclear power that could reduce their reliance on fossil fuels over the coming years: installing small modular reactors (SMRs) on or near the site of retired coal fired plants.

nuclear power plants can help make energy systems more resilient to the climate impacts expected in the future,

"We are pleased to partner with Inria and to continue investing in research for the advancement of reliable, low-carbon energy generation," said Alexis Marincic, senior executive vice president, Engineering & Design Authority, Framatome.

The UK Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) said on 14 June that the government had published documents which show significant progress towards implementing a new funding model which will give nuclear projects the financial support they need and attract private investment.

Nuclear has for the first time in over a decade, woven itself into the public narrative as a key technology to support climate change and net-zero objectives.

There has been a split within the European Union over whether or not nuclear power - and natural gas - should be included as being "sustainable". Nuclear energy was left out of the initial Delegated Act pending further assessment.

Through the collaboration, KBR’s market-leading energy advisory services team and Terrestrial Energy will analyse the integration of Terrestrial Energy’s Integral Molten Salt Reactor (IMSR) nuclear cogeneration technology for use in green ammonia and hydrogen production.

This is a fantastic moment for the United States to reclaim global nuclear energy leadership.

In the realm of fusion science discovery, improved AI-based modelling of plasma dynamics from experimental data and plasma simulations offers the possibility of enabling predictive modelling for real-time monitoring

South Korea has a goal of exporting 10 nuclear power plants by 2030.
