RICHLAND, Wash. As the Clean Energy Transformation Act drives Washington state toward carbon-free electricity, a new energy landscape is taking shape. Alongside renewable energy sources, a new report finds small modular reactors are poised to play an integral role in the state s emerging clean energy future.
The technology could help fill a power source gap soon to be left by carbon-emitting resources like coal and natural gas, which will be phased out in coming years, according to a report composed by researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Nuclear energy is a reliable source of baseload electricity, said PNNL s manager for nuclear power systems Ali Zbib, who coauthored the report, and our findings show that advanced small modular reactors could be economically competitive in a future carbon-free electricity sector. They re well-suited to play an important role in an energy market
Reminisce: Cory was born for railroad work
Charles Henry Cory had a long career in railroads and became a notable resident of Lima.
The Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton shops in Lima can be seen in 1888.
An 1889 illustration details the Lima operations of the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton Railroad.
Items from Charles H. Cory are on display at the Allen County Museum. On the left is an ice water set and on the right is a tea set presented by employees of the Nickel Plate Railroad on Sept. 20, 1882.
A photo from 1864 shows Charles Cory, who worked for the government as foreman of the locomotive erecting shops at Nashville, Tenn., at the time.
