The FSP project is sponsored by NASA in collaboration with the Department of Energy (DOE) and Idaho National Laboratory (INL) to establish a durable, high-power, sun-independent power source for NASA missions on the moon by the end of the decade, as well as potential subsequent missions.

The Visegrad 4 "are committed to the use of nuclear energy, as nuclear power plants help to achieve the European Union's goal of climate neutrality while strengthening security of supply and providing clean electricity at affordable prices," said the Paks II project company.

In February 2020, NuScale Power and Ukraine's State Scientific and Technical Centre for Nuclear and Radiation Safety (SSTC NRS) announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to start work on the evaluation of national regulatory and design processes related to the implementation of NuScale SMR technology in Ukraine.

The bank opened two credit lines (in the amount of $500 million and $300 million) for a period of seven years, Sberbank said on 17 November. The funds will be used for the construction of the plant’s four VVER-1200 reactors.

Rosenergoatom (part of the electric power division of Rosatom State Corporation) and the international metallurgical company NLMK Group concluded an agreement on cooperation in the supply of low-carbon electricity.

“There's a real future for fusion to be part of this climate change and clean energy discussion,” said Kirtley, adding that other fusion energy companies were also pushing the timeline forward.

Nuclear power should be at the heart of any climate change action plans - because it is a proven, low-carbon, round-the-clock energy source, deployable at scale.

This is why, to guarantee France's energy independence, to guarantee our country's electricity supply and achieve our objectives, in particular carbon neutrality in 2050, we are going, for the first time in decades, to relaunch the construction of nuclear reactors in our country and continue to develop renewable energies.

"It is impossible for those who have the slightest sensitivity in their hearts about the economic independence of Turkey and the well-being of the Turkish nation to oppose nuclear energy."

In May, the UK's Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy opened the GDA process to advanced nuclear technologies, including SMRs.

The five-day follow-up Corporate OSART mission, completed on 29 October, was carried out at the request of the Russian Government. Rosenergoatom is a subsidiary of the Russian state corporation Rosatom and currently owns and operates all 38 nuclear reactors across the Russian Federation.

The meeting marked the launch of the US-UK Strategic Energy Dialogue, a commitment made by UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson and President Joe Biden in June 2021, to deepen collaboration in areas such as clean energy technologies, industrial decarbonisation, nuclear energy, and energy security, as well as science and innovation.

Under the teaming agreement, NuScale will help Nuclearelectrica evaluate its technology, and together, the organisations will take steps toward deploying a first NuScale six-module, 462MWe, power plant in Romania as early as 2027/2028.

"One of the facts in that report is in my view very pertinent. In order to reach energy and climate goals nuclear generation needs to double compared to today,"

“The move to build an nuclear power plant is more than just a demand for clean energy – it means new jobs, new education, contracts for local industry, economic growth, and an improved quality of life for people in general.”
