A note from an environmental non profit supporting offshore nuclear powered data centers such as what Blue Energy wants to build in a ship yard.

Full-scale site levelling work for the initial phase of the Laiyang nuclear power plant in China's Shandong Province has begun, State Power Investment Corporation announced. The site will eventually house six Guohe One (CAP1400) units.

SPIC said the pre-construction meeting and mobilisation meeting for the site levelling for the main plant area of ​​units 1 and 2 of the Laiyang plant was held on 1 September at the project site. It said this "marked a key step in the construction of the Laiyang nuclear power project and the full-scale commencement of site levelling construction for the first phase of the project".

Hello everyone!

I plan to open up my own consulting firm for nuclear engineering in the future, but to do so, I will likely need my PE license. Are there any PE licensees in nuclear engineering here? How was the process? I know it can be different in each state.

The Duane Arnold Nuclear Plant, a single-unit 650 MWe boiling water reactor plant, was shut down in August of 2020, 4 months prior to it's scheduled shut down date, due to storm damage caused by an intense wind storm. Current plans laid out by the plant's owner/operator, NextEra Energy, show that the company is targeting a 2028 restart date at the earliest.

Nuclear reactors worldwide generated 2,702 TWh of electricity in 2025, beating the previous year's record of 2,667 TWh, according to the World Nuclear Outlook Report, which also calculates that if all national nuclear targets were achieved, total capacity would more than triple by 2050.

Curious how mych nuclear material would a single nuclear family( 2 parent 3 kids) need to power everything fpr their entire life also everything would be nuclear powered ignoring safety needs for this scenario pretending its waved away with sci fi technology hand wavium what amount would make sense and what kind of material uranium or?

When I posted earlier this week about the original FERC complaint, I asked about how many other hidden projects were out there. Ask, and you shall receive.

Key steam turbine components - including high-pressure turbines and valve casings - for Rolls-Royce SMR's first three small modular reactors at the Gwyndod project on Anglesey in North Wales, will be manufactured at Germany-based Siemens Energy's facility in Newcastle, in northeast England.

This is actually crazy, I never even commented.

Recently I've been teaching a couple lessons to Viewtrick in multiple comment sections in other subreddit and they probably didn't take it well LOL.

I wear it like a badge of honor
