Nuclear batteries - also known as radioisotope batteries - work on the principle of utilising the energy released by the decay of nuclear isotopes and converting it into electrical energy through semiconductor converters.

Около 80% энергетических ресурсов перенаправлено на дружественные рынки, в основном в Азиатско-Тихоокеанский регион, Африку, страны Латинской Америки.

"To reach our goal of net-zero by 2050, we have to at least triple our current nuclear capacity in this country. That means we’ve got to add 200 more gigawatts by 2050,"

The floating power units developed by Rosatom are based on the RITM-200 reactors which have been used for the latest generation of nuclear-powered icebreakers.

The MoUs were signed by Rosatom Director General Alexei Likhachev and Burkina Faso's Minister of Energy, Mines and Quarries, Yacouba Zabre Guba, on the sidelines of the St Petersburg International Economic Forum.

Переход на безуглеродную электроэнергетику технически реализуем, но потребует роста затрат на электроснабжение конечных потребителей в 3–7 раз, в зависимости от региона.

Rosatom Director General Alexei Likhachev said: "Rosatom has confirmed its undisputed global leadership in nuclear energy by signing the first-ever export contract for the construction of a small nuclear power plant. This is not just a preliminary agreement; we are starting construction this summer."

In 2023, Rosatom and Myanmar’s Ministry of Science & Technology signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on nuclear infrastructure assessment and enhancement on the sidelines of the Russian Energy Week.

The NATO Energy Security Centre of Excellence - located in Vilnius, Lithuania - is one of 28 NATO-accredited expert bodies that advise member militaries on strategy and technologies in particular fields.

Committee chairman Sen. Joe Manchin (D., W. Va.) and other members spoke about the grid needing to rely on fossil fuels longer than expected and attendant delays to the transition to emissions-free energy, upsetting a major part of President Biden’s climate change agenda.

The Prohibiting Russian Uranium Imports Act was signed into law by President Joe Biden earlier this month and will go into effect on 11 August. The ban runs until the end of 2040, but the DOE may waive the ban, under certain conditions, to allow the import of limited amounts of material up until 1 January 2028.

WEST’s latest campaign, which started in mid-January set a new plasma duration record of 6 minutes and 4 seconds, with an injected energy of 1.15 GJ, along with a steady-state central electron temperature of 4 keV (50m degrees Celsius), and an electron density twice that of discharges obtained in the tokamak’s previous configuration, Tore Supra.

The company noted that estimates of future energy demand in Norway vary from 50 TWh to 233 TWh.

Meralco and USNC signed a cooperative agreement in November 2023 to study the deployment of one or more micro modular reactor systems in the Philippines.

The passage and signing of this law will ensure the U.S. will no longer be reliant on imported uranium fuel from the Russian Federation.
