“Nuclear energy will play a major role in the transition to a carbon-free world. The U.S. industry must be able to compete quickly, in order to ensure our national security and regain leadership from Russia and China.”

“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.”

As World Nuclear News marks, a new report by the Flexible Nuclear Campaign for Nuclear-Renewables Integration urges that policymakers act now on nuclear energy.

“Nuclear power is a resilient source of energy, as demonstrated even during the pandemics, and already provides one-third of all low carbon electricity.”

“Royal Dutch Shell is looking to slash up to 40% off the cost of producing oil and gas in a major drive to save cash so it can overhaul its business and focus more on renewable energy and power markets, sources told Reuters.”

“But Texas offers benefits that the wind industry has long appreciated: relatively easy land acquisition and permitting, and a competitive market that batteries can enter without waiting for major policy changes.”

“The move is a signal of intent for BP’s low-carbon plans…It gives a real-life example of how the company plans to fulfill its ambition to sell integrated low-carbon power packages to companies and cities—one of the two green businesses it wants to develop.”

“Wood Mackenzie expects investment in renewable electric power in the Asia-Pacific region to outpace investment in fossil-fuel power such as coal and natural gas every year for the next five years.”

“U.S. utilities are increasingly exploring the use of what is called green hydrogen made from wind and solar energy to reduce emissions from power plants and pipelines.”

“This year, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas or ERCOT, the electric grid that services about 90% of Texas electricity, is scheduled to add almost as much wind as it has in the past five years combined and almost triple its solar capacity.”
