Among the raft of executive actions in the first days of his second term, President Trump issued several related to energy and the climate. This included the declaration of a “National Energy Emergency.”
I just celebrated my eighth anniversary running Citizens for Responsible Energy Solutions (CRES). This milestone represents eight years of working to ensure Republicans have a seat at the table to discuss the benefits of unleashing American energy while lowering emissions. During this time, I witnessed three presidential elections—each with its own nuances—and saw their impact...
Core Power (US) Inc, has enlisted Seattle-based naval architecture and marine engineering firm Glosten to help its team design a floating nuclear power plant (FNPP) to power ports in the United States. Created by Core Power, the FNPP concept is a nearshore infrastructure system that includes a barge-based nuclear power plant, barge support services, electrical...
Unsurprisingly, the news that China’s DeepSeek AI had leapfrogged competitors triggered an investor sell-off. It dragged down Nvidia, the American chipmaker powering the AI revolution, as well as related tech stocks, from Micron and Advanced Micro Devices to manufacturing juggernaut TSMC. There is, after all, some wisdom in worrying that we don’t know who the ultimate...
Investors are scrambling to build transmission infrastructure to meet surging power demand from data centers and accommodate a vast array of clean power projects waiting in grid connection queues. Demand for clean power hiked on the back of falling costs, federal tax credits, and ambitious renewable energy targets, leading to over 2.5 TW of solar, wind and...
Shipping nuclear propulsion start-up CORE POWER, which in November of last year announced a deal with Westinghouse for design and development of floating nuclear power plants (FNPPs), has hired an architectural and marine engineering firm to help design FNPPs that could provide energy for operations at U.S. shipping ports. Glosten, with offices in Seattle, Washington, and Providence,...
Three days after President Trump formally ordered a U.S. departure from the Paris Agreement, Bloomberg Philanthropies announced that it would step in alongside other unnamed donors to cover the country’s funding and disclosure obligations to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, whose job it is to implement the climate deal made in the French capital...
The Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry voted 23-0 in favor of advancing Brooke Rollins’ nomination for secretary of agriculture. She must now clear a full Senate vote before officially being installed at USDA. Baring any last-minutes surprises, Rollins is expected to easily receive enough votes. “Thank you to the entire United States Senate...
Four small-scale nuclear reactors are to be hosted on Texas A&M University land, it was announced on Tuesday. CEOs from four nuclear power companies have committed to work with the Texas A&M System to develop prototype and commercial-ready “small modular reactors” (SMRs)—with the first having the potential to be constructed within five years. Smaller than their traditional...
