Key Takeaway The project originated from a 2022 meeting of the Repowering Coal Consortium at Microsoft’s Dublin offices, where fifty industry representatives highlighted permitting as a major barrier to scaling nuclear deployment. Currently, only one reactor is built per decade in the Western world, while 2,500 are needed globally to replace coal power. Mark Tipping, […]
Key Takeaway As AI technology advances, concerns about the energy and water consumption of its infrastructure are increasing. Data centers still rely heavily on fossil fuels, which account for 56% of their energy use. To combat this, Rolls-Royce is exploring nuclear power, specifically Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), to sustainably power AI operations. This initiative aligns […]
Key Takeaway Tesla’s application for a UK energy licence coincides with a significant decline in vehicle sales across Europe, with registrations dropping nearly 60% in the UK and over 55% in Germany in July. Overall, sales fell 45% in ten key European markets, largely due to increased competition from rivals like BYD. This downturn has […]
