ATLANTA: WESTINGHOUSE ANNOUNCES SMR After watching the success of General Electric-Hitachi's 300MW SMR in winning selection competitions with potential customers around the world, Westinghouse Nuclear throws their hat in the ring with a new design of similar size. Meet the AP300:

I enjoyed conversing about the essential role of nuclear energy to reach global decarbonization goals with my friends HE Al Hammadi and Assistant Secretary Dr Huff during the Nuclear Leadership Forum at the Global Utilities Congress 2023.

⚛️🇪🇸 NUCLEAR POWER IN SPAIN 🇪🇸⚛️ Since we have gained quite a few new followers recently, and they may not speak Spanish, or just not be familiar with the situation and history of nuclear power in Spain, the following thread 🧵 explains where we are, and how we got here.

Greenpeace UK People need to cool down in the heat. Want to power AC with clean energy? Then stop protesting clean energy. Your heavy lobbying against nuclear energy, which is needed to displace coal, is what makes no sense

Always good to see context added.

Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose Over the last year a lot has happened in the nuclear energy world Unfortunately little is reflected in today's latest @NationalGridESO Future Energy Scenario (FES) A thread of frustrations 🧵 nationalgrideso.com/future-energy/…

Podcast: The 2023 edition of World Nuclear Association's World #Nuclear Performance Report is packed full of stats - its author Jonathan Cobb presents the headlines and discusses what the findings reveal about overall output and different types and ages of reactors tinyurl.com/hjeypvv6

Important to have @worldnuclear's Sama Bilbao y Leon at #Atoms4NetZero conference. As we approach #COP28, cooperation between @IAEAorg & WNA is mutually beneficial. Together, we'll advance nuclear's role in climate solutions and drive innovation in the sector, especially with #SMRs.

The first Nuclear Energy Summit with Heads of State and Governments is coming up next year in Brussels. Organized by @IAEAorg and Belgium, this is the highest-level event on nuclear energy yet. Honored to co-chair with Alexander De Croo 🇧🇪🇪🇺. 🔗 bit.ly/48NXi8n

Inspiring to meet the next generation of nuclear professionals from 🇬🇧 UK Nuclear Graduates. Their passion and expertise, from policy to engineering, highlights the key role of youth in shaping a sustainable nuclear future.

We are proud to announce the start-up of Unit 4 of the Barakah Plant, a strategic milestone on the path to full fleet operations later this year. Celebrating a remarkable accomplishment as our team successfully delivers another unit, powering our journey towards Net Zero!
