The Anti-Nuclear Playbook Comes for Data Centers
Half a century ago, raw emotion drove an anti-nuclear energy campaign that still stifles clean energy development in the U.S. Today, that same fear-driven playbook is being deployed in a…
Unlocking America’s Nuclear Gold Mine: The Promise of Spent Fuel
America’s spent nuclear fuel challenge will not be solved by rhetoric, grants, or endless study alone. It will be solved when states voluntarily participate, when private industry sees opportunity rather…
U.S. Nuclear Waste: History of a Failed Endeavor
The Trump Administration’s reform of energy policy has recently reached nuclear waste. A leaked White House document, reported Politico, prioritized the idea of greater state participation for localized, decentralized storage. One federal…
Wrong, Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, Nuclear Power Isn’t the Reliability Problem
Readers deserve a balanced comparison of all generating technologies, not another attempt to redefine one of the world’s most reliable energy sources as unreliable simply because it, like every other…
Claim: Solar saved the day when Heatwaves Forced Shutdowns of European Nuclear Plants
Blaming government infrastructure failures on nuclear energy.
Nuclear waste storage ….. no big deal
Nuclear power will be the future. There is no doubt about it. Nuclear is the cleanest, greenest, cheapest, safest, energy source ever. There is no doubt about that, no matter…
Mining the oceans for fresh water – and Uranium
Traditional desalination has involved reverse osmosis, in which salty water is pressed against a membrane hard enough that freshwater squeezes through and the salt stays behind. On land, this requires…
Canada Winning from US Nuclear Subsidies
In an ironic twist, Canada seems to be well ahead of the U.S. in the SMR world.
Nuclear safety and Einstein’s truth
So why make such a drama about the safety of nuclear power merely because you can spin your imagination into a fanciful, disastrous outcome? The real evidence to date has…
Department of Energy Celebrates Second Advanced Reactor Achieving Criticality
“Today marks another historic moment for America’s nuclear renaissance,” said U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright. “From the first-ever airlift of a small reactor aboard a U.S. military C-17 to successful zero-power…
Fueling the Coming Nuclear Renaissance
If all goes well, LIS will have fuel ready by the time new reactors are cleared to operate.
Africa’s nuclear future is small (modular reactors)
Rwandan President Paul Kagame may well be Africa’s foremost nuclear energy champion. Speaking in Paris at Nuclear Energy Summit 2026, Kagame said Rwanda is determined to do what it takes…
U.S. Nuclear Acceleration Effort Hits Milestone with Antares Criticality Test
The first time in roughly four decades that a privately developed, non‑light‑water advanced reactor has gone critical in the U.S.
Can US and India Forge a ‘Big, Beautiful’ Energy Deal?
A U.S.-India alliance would strike at the heart of the corrupt climate lobby. By trading massive quantities of fossil fuels, it would break a stranglehold on energy policy that climate…
Would You Rather Live Near A Battery Energy Storage System or a Nuclear Plant
“From a public safety standpoint, if you’ve decommissioned three nuclear reactors, why would you want to install a BESS facility in populated areas that is far less safe?”
Waste of the Day: Radioactive Wasted Money
The federal government is so prone to excessive spending that it is even wasting money on waste itself.
America’s Energy Comeback is Leaving Green Fantasies Behind
After years of efforts by radical greens to strangle America’s oil, gas, and coal industries — while forcing the nation to accept costly, land-devouring wind and solar — the U.S.…
Germany’s Nuclear Confession Is a Crack in Net Zero Pretense
Merz’s nuclear confession suggests that the political class cannot keep dodging reality forever.
Troubles at NuScale Power, Fermi America
Energy hyperbole and the madness of crowds are evident with both NuScale Power and Fermi America. Bubbles burst.
