How climate activists badly missed the mark on Willow drilling project
"If climate advocates claim to value local knowledge, indigenous communities or even basic math, calling these back-to-back announcements anything other than a win is pure hypocrisy."
3 Types of Renewable Energy on the Rise in 2023
The use of sustainable energy has been happening for years. As costs of solar and wind decrease and consumer opinions favorably shift, the world is looking to expand and explore different types of renewable energy. While some people believe that renewable energy is tipping this year, steps are being taken to further the momentum and...

Jae-Fu Kim of The Korea Economic Daily reports that NuScale is in talks to build a small modular reactor (SMR) plant in South Korea. “The NuScale Power Module is built based on pressurized water-cooled reactor technology and can supply power for electrical generation, district heating, desalination, commercial hydrogen production and other process heat applications, according...
Texas, a Clean-Energy Pioneer, Turns Against Renewables
"The renewable-energy boom in Texas was shaped by some of the characteristics that define the state itself—wide-open spaces, regulatory permissiveness and a fiercely competitive electricity market unlike any other in the country. An overhaul of the state’s power market approved in 1999 under then-Gov. George W. Bush set the stage for the renewable frenzy. Deregulation broke up the functions of monopoly utilities and introduced competitive auctions for wholesale power. Part of the plan included adding at least 2,000 megawatts of renewable generating capacity by 2009. Texas blew past that goal, set another and surpassed it too."

An AI Startup Is Helping North American Diesel Trains Clean Up Their Act
"To solve those puzzles, RailVision collects data from rail operations to simulate train dynamics and uses an algorithm to determine the most fuel-efficient driving pattern. While the AI solution is still in its infancy, Jain says it has helped Metrolinx, a government agency that serves millions of riders in the province of Ontario, save more than 1.5 million liters of diesel fuel during a one-year experiment. RailVision also counts Via Rail Canada Inc., the country’s main intercity passenger train operator, as an early adopter."
How do we move around in a zero-carbon world?
“So, how exactly do we fuel our need to move around without emitting greenhouse gases? The answer is simple, even if making it happen won’t be: use clean electricity to run all the vehicles we can, and get cheap alternative fuels for everything else.”
This One Simple Question Will Shape the Future of Energy
“If we are serious about addressing climate change, then the future of energy must be clean. With carbon-free electricity sources like nuclear, we can power our way of life, reduce emissions, and save the planet.”
