Turning Mine Waste into Valuable Electronics Materials
An innovative method for recovering rare earth elements (REEs) from mine waste promises to address pressing environmental challenges while meeting the growing demand for materials critical to the electronics industry. Researchers at Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU) have unveiled a process that extracts lanthanum, a high-demand REE, from contaminated mine tailings. The method utilizes industrial adsorbents to purify...
Meta seeks nuclear power developers for reactors to start in early 2030s
Meta (META.O), said on Tuesday it is seeking proposals from nuclear power developers to help meet its artificial intelligence and environment goals, becoming the latest big tech company to take interest in atomic power amid an expected boom in electricity demand. The company wants to add 1 to 4 gigawatts of new U.S. nuclear generation capacity...
How GE Vernova plans to deploy small nuclear reactors across the developed world
GE Vernova is aiming to deploy small nuclear reactors across the developed world over the next decade, staking out a leadership position in a budding technology that could play a central role in meeting surging electricity demand and reducing carbon dioxide emissions. The company’s small modular reactor, or SMR, is designed to reduce the cost of building...
Solar Project Converts Cranberry Bog Into An Efficient Power Source
Repurposing airfields, building on landfills, and blending with cranberry bogs, Syncarpha Capital wants to change the energy scene. Syncarpha Capital’s aim is to transform the energy landscape by reducing or completely removing obstacles to the mass use of solar energy and energy storage in the United States. Recently, a couple of community projects expressed their...
LANL conducts first HALEU fuel experiment in two decades
For the first time in more than two decades, researchers at the US Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) have performed critical experiment using high-assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU) TRISO (TRI-structural ISOtropic) fuel. The Deimos experiment was performed at the National Criticality Experiments Research Centre (NCERC) outside of Las Vegas, operated by LANL at the Nevada National...
A Copper Shortage May Threaten Access to Clean, Reliable, and Affordable Energy
Copper has been called the mineral of electrification. We will need a massive amount of it to support the rapid growth in demand for electricity – for decarbonizing power generation and the grid, for electrifying buildings, transportation and industry, and for bringing electricity to the world’s population that doesn’t have it today. And there’s a...
How Hydrogen Can Strengthen the United States’ Energy Sovereignty
Political uncertainty over the past few months has hindered U.S. leadership in the global hydrogen sector. The Biden administration struggled to formalize a long-term clean hydrogen policy, posing risks to the country’s energy security. Following the recent election results and upcoming change of administration, there is now an opportunity to accelerate the adoption of clean...
Datacenters line up for 750MW of Oklo’s nuclear-waste-powered small reactors
Increasingly, datacenter operators are putting their faith in the promise of miniaturized nuclear power plants – better known as small modular reactors (SMRs) – to fuel their ever-growing energy demands. Sam Altman-backed SMR startup Oklo says it’s obtained letters of intent from two major – but unnamed – datacenter providers to deliver up to 750 megawatts of...
Houston firm closes oversubscribed $450M fund for clean energy innovation
Houston-based private equity firm Pelican Energy Partners has raised a $450 million fund to invest in nuclear energy services and equipment companies. Pelican had aimed to raise $300 million for Pelican Energy Partners Base Zero LP and had imposed an initial “hard cap” of $400 million. Investors include endowments, foundations, family offices, and pension plans....
