A Pennsylvania nuclear power station reported a reactor scram Tuesday after a hydrogen tank incident created an arc flash visible to nearby residents.

Meanwhile, Westinghouse claims that it will be involved in the construction of “at least $80 billion of new reactors,” a mix of AP1000 and AP300 (each named for the MW of capacity of the reactor/generator combination). The company claims that doing so will “reinvigorate the nuclear power industrial base.”

With demand for energy in the United States rapidly rising, nuclear energy has reemerged as a leading solution to avoid future supply constraints. K&L Gates partners Marty Pugh, Jim Goettsch and Tison Campbell explore this and the conditions,

In the shadow of a service outage that affected millions of users, outside of Richland, Washington, internet commerce giant Amazon is building the first of a series of modular nuclear power stations to protect its data services from outages.

Scientists studying a 4.4-million-year-old fossil named Ardi may have uncovered the evolutionary step that turned ancient climbers into early walkers.

The U.S. government announced a pact to build at least $80 billion worth of nuclear reactors, in a pact to meet the growing power demands caused by artificial intelligence.

Under the Navy contract, BWXT's Nuclear Fuel Services subsidiary will produce and deliver fuel for the Naval Reactors Program.

Westinghouse Electric Co. has joined with Canada-based Cameco Corp. and Brookfield Asset Management in a partnership that would advance deployment of nuclear power technology across the U.S. The groups on October 28 said at least $80 billion of new reactors,

Two companies, TerraPower and Deep Fission, have proposed building advanced nuclear reactors in Kansas. TerraPower, co-founded by Bill Gates, is exploring a utility-scale plant with energy storage capabilities in partnership with Evergy.

LANSING, MI — Michigan lawmakers this week approved bipartisan legislation aimed at expanding nuclear energy generation and positioning the state to play a larger role in the next era of advanced reactors.

After decades of stagnation, nuclear energy is staging a comeback — and it’s no longer the gigawatt-scale reactors of the past leading the charge. Small modular reactors, once dismissed as niche or speculative, have moved to the center of a global ...

Deep Fission is a fledgling startup that says it can help tech companies meet the "explosive demand" for more energy to power artificial intelligence.
