Congrats to all the winners, including Molten Salt Consulting from Snow College ⚛️

Could this microreactor help replace diesel generators?

We got a behind-the-scenes look at the development of Radiant's Kaleidos microreactor 👇

Congratulations to Energoatom and Ukraine's Ministry of Energy for starting construction on the Khmelnytskyi Nuclear Power Plant's Unit 5, the first of nine Westinghouse AP1000® reactors planned for Ukraine / Україна.

Hundreds of the nation’s coal plants could be a good fit for advanced reactors – opening up new job opportunities for communities across the country. 

Here are 8 things you should know: bit.ly/49Q6ZTA

3 reasons why nuclear is more flexible 🤸‍♀️ than you might think.

DID YOU KNOW? Boiling water reactors heat water and produce steam directly inside the reactor vessel. 

Water is pumped through the reactor core and heated by fission. Pipes then feed the steam directly to a turbine to produce electricity.

FACT: Nuclear energy is one of the largest sources of emissions-free power in the world. It generates nearly a fifth of America’s electricity, which is enough to power more than 70 million homes.

NUCLEAR 101: Microreactors will be small enough to transport by truck and could help solve energy challenges at military bases or remote locations.

🔵 What’s that blue glow surrounding a reactor?

It’s a phenomenon known as Cherenkov Radiation that happens when electrically charged particles, such as protons or electrons, travel faster than light in a clear medium like water.

HALEU: This is high-assay low-enriched uranium recovered from legacy EBR-II fuel Idaho National Lab. The material will be used to support current testing and demo projects.
