BusinessWire reports that Ultra Safe Nuclear Corporation, Hyundai Engineering, and SK ecoplant have agree to develop clean hydrogen with micro nuclear power.
- The three entities will conduct research and development for the next five years for clean hydrogen power production.
- Hyundai and Ultra Safe will look to deploy clean hydrogen by working at a micro modular nuclear power plant that is being demonstrated at the Chalk River Laboratories Campus in Ontario, Canada.
- Developing a way to create green hydrogen with micro nuclear reactors could be especially important in creating clean hydrogen at and on industrial sites.
“The ‘Hydrogen Micro Hub’ is a facility that produces hydrogen by applying a high-temperature electrolysis process of solid oxide electrolysis cells (SOEC) to the electricity and high-temperature steam generated by USNC’s Micro-Modular™ Reactor (MMR®). This is a carbon-free hydrogen production method that extracts hydrogen by decomposing water with electricity generated from nuclear power.”
