🇫🇮| Finland is moving forward with a revolutionary solution for how to dispose of high-level #nuclear waste and spent fuel from atomic reactors. Earlier this week Forbes took a closer look at the ins and outs of this trailblazing project. forbes.com/sites/jamescon…

Wyoming is getting in line to build one of the first advanced nuclear reactors in the country! Many predicted that early adoption of advanced nuclear would happen where nuclear already exists (near nuclear plants, research facilities), but WY said nah, I want one

🛢| “I’m not going to use #nuclear waste ‘problems’ as an excuse to try to shut down nuclear reactors. There are problems involved in waste disposal – but they’re political and social problems, not scientific or technical ones.” Great debunk by ACSH. acsh.org/news/2021/06/1…

Small modular reactors are increasingly attractive for #Arctic communities looking to decarbonize. In her latest Global Energy Center blog, distinguished fellow Julia Nesheiwat breaks down the collaboration needed to scale up SMR deployment in remote areas: atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/energyso…
