DOE funds nuclear workforce training

The initiative supports growing demand for skilled nuclear workers as the US fleet ages and nuclear capacity expands.

ARC-100 eyes Turkish deployment

Türkiye aims to finalise regulatory frameworks and begin construction on prioritised small modular rector (SMR) projects between 2030 and 2034.

Scorpio, Ampera target nuclear shipping

The partnership combines maritime engineering expertise with containerised 15-30 MWe microreactor technology targeting deployment around 2030.

NTPC partners EDF on nuclear

The collaboration supports NTPC’s clean energy expansion strategy and follows broader efforts enabled by India’s updated nuclear liability framework.

Russia trials ATF mox fuel

The trial supports Rosatom’s development of a closed nuclear fuel cycle that reuses spent fuel materials and improves reactor safety and efficiency.

Fluor joins Seadrift SMR project

The project aims to supply power and steam to the site using advanced nuclear technology, with support from the DOE’s ARDP.

Deep Isolation selected for DOE SCALEUP

The project includes a full-scale pilot in Texas, aiming to provide the world’s first commercial-ready deep borehole nuclear waste disposal solution.

First concrete for Jinqimen 2

The project is part of a six-unit Hualong-1 programme expected to deliver 7.2 GWe of capacity and cut carbon emissions by approximately 45 million tonnes annually.

Criticality for India’s PFBR

The sodium-cooled reactor will support future large-scale deployment of thorium-based nuclear energy and strengthen long-term fuel security.
