Holtec International is trying to restart the Palisades nuclear plant and expand it with two small modular reactors through an agreement with Hyundai E&C.

Everyone from the U.S. energy secretary to Big Tech touts small modular nuclear reactors as a potential answer to booming ...

After five years of trying to find the right ingredients, scientists at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) believe they have ...

Nuclear energy is a carbon-free power source produced by breaking atoms apart inside a reactor, a process called fission. Unlike coal and other fossil fuels, this type of energy doesn’t directly ...

Two new modular nuclear reactors, dubbed SMR-300s ... "The thinking is, it's really hard and really expensive to build the types of plants we operate and have operating," he said.

The SMR-300 reactor is designed to provide up to 300 megawatts per module, enough to power about 300,000 homes.

Countries want to squeeze more electricity from ageing power plants to help meet global demand, but the strategy has its own ...

Instead, the technology industry is focusing on SMRs, which are new types of advanced nuclear reactors that have a power capacity of 300MW of less, or about a third of the size of standard facilities.

For 75 years, high flux thermal irradiation testing has driven U.S. nuclear innovation, supporting reactor development and ...
