NNL, the UK’s national laboratory for nuclear fission, has today launched its new Strategic Plan: This is NNL. With legally binding targets in the UK to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, and more than 120 other countries moving towards the same goal, it is "impossible to overestimate the scale of the challenge ahead", NNL said.
….. Advanced Modular Reactors are unlikely to be available before 2045 if ever – much too late to be any help in tackling the climate emergency. .…. Small Modular Reactors s will only proceed if the risk to RR money is minimal. That means RR will only put serious effort into design development with government guarantees given now, before the design exists, and it has been reviewed by ONR, a demonstration plant has been completed, and costs are known. SMRs will only proceed if the risk to RR money is minimal. That means RR will only put serious effort into design development with...
Nuclear Power in Western Europe 0 April 21, 2021 16:13 by Matthew Bird Rian Patel Moving away from America’s horrific use of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki to end the war, President Eisenhower of the US delivered his ‘Atoms for Peace’ speech in 1953, to the UN. Three years later, the world’s first full-scale, civil nuclear power plant opened in the UK. Reactors soon began springing up in numerous countries, as early nuclear power brought promise of a new age. Yet despite the improved performance of nuclear electricity production, t...
Nuclear should be âat the heartâ of hydrogen production New reactor technology could provide one-third of zero-carbon hydrogen by 2050 Nuclear power could produce one-third of the UKâs clean hydrogen needs by 2050, according to the Hydrogen Roadmap agreed by the Nuclear Industry Council (NIC), a joint forum between the nuclear industry and government. But the industryâs ability to make itself central to green hydrogen could be either helped or hindered by the outcome of a joint research report, due in a few weeks. The NIC produced a roadmap that claims Advanced Modular ...
