Rich Powell writes in The Hill on new nuclear power in the U.S. “Clean, reliable power and new international energy markets — it almost sounds too good to be true. America invented nuclear power. And once again, we are putting the pieces in place to lead the world.” Read the full article here.

"The Natrium Fuel Facility will be jointly funded by TerraPower and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) through the Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program, which aims to speed the demonstration of advanced reactors through cost-shared partnerships with U.S. industry. The facility represents an investment of more than $200 million."

"LanzaJet's Freedom Pines Fuels project will be the company's first commercial-scale SAF plant. It will also be the first plant in the world to make alcohol-to-jet SAF, which it is hoped could reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 70% compared to fossil jet fuel. The project is set to be finished in 2023."

"If you claim credit when gasoline prices go down, you should expect blame when they go back up. In reality, the president doesn’t have much to do with either, but the White House has chosen to tie its political fortune to the price of gasoline — let them enjoy the ride."

"Today, Propagate announced a $10M Series A fundraise to propel this vision to commercialize its agroforestry-focused software, development, and financing ecosystem. The round was led by Belgium-based The Nest and also included Agfunder, the TELUS Pollinator Fund for Good, Techstars, and Neglected Climate Opportunities, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Jeremy and Hannelore Grantham Environmental Trust, and more."

"Federal weather officials believe that, on balance, this winter will be colder than last and require more energy to heat homes. Though milder temperatures are expected in the Southwest and along the Atlantic Coast, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration forecasts colder weather in the frigid parts of the country, where the most heating fuel is consumed."

"The construction industry is responsible for an oversized chunk of the carbon emissions that cause climate change. More than a quarter of the total carbon comes from operating buildings — things like heating and cooling — and about 10% of the world’s emissions originate in the process of creating building materials, such as making steel and concrete. Part of Rheaply’s mission is to improve the secondary market for building supplies, thus reducing emissions and doing its part to save the planet."

"The declining costs of carbon-capture projects make them more economically viable and offer a way to reduce emissions while other technologies evolve, Ms. Adomait said. She cited hydrogen fuel and direct-air capture, or extracting carbon dioxide from the air, as examples of carbon-reducing technologies still in development."
