Rolls-Royce SMR said in a statement that it welcomed the announcement by Polish industrial group, Industria, to progress the approval of an application for a Decision Principle to build Rolls-Royce Small Modular Reactor (SMR) power plants in Poland. "A Decision in Principle is the first step towards deployment and requires opinions from several separate government departments. Polish Minister of Climate and Environment, Ms. Paulina Hennig-Kloska, has returned the final opinion required - following confirmation by the Polish Minister of State Assets, the Chief of the Polish Internal Security Ag...

The demonstration was against legislators extending the use of Maanshan Nuclear Power Plant, also known as the “Third Nuclear Powerplant.” Protestors braved the rain dressed in coats and straw hats, as speakers played the nuclear leak alarm message. Taiwan currently has four nuclear power plants, with the first and second in the process of decommissioning, a third one still in use and a fourth whose construction was suspended in April 2014.

The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency said attacks against Europe’s largest nuclear power plant have put the world “dangerously close to a nuclear accident”. Without attributing blame, IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi said his agency has been able to confirm three attacks against the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant since 7 April. “These reckless attacks must cease immediately,” he told the Security Council on Monday. “Though, fortunately, they have not led to a radiological incident this time, they significantly increase the risk … where nuclear safety is already compr...

All six reactors at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) have reached a state of cold shutdown for the first time since October 2022, the International Atomic Energy Agency said in a news release on April 13. IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi welcomed the cold shutdown that began early on Friday morning, statingthat the cold shutdown "enhances the overall safety of the facility." A cold shutdown creates an extra safety buffer allowing more time before nuclear fuel cooling might become compromised in the event of a nuclear accident. While in cold shutdown a reactor would need l...

France is this month supposed finally to load in fuel its third-generation nuclear reactor, known as EPR, and a connexion to the grid is expected later this year. Europe's top nuclear energy producer is 12 years behind schedule - a delay that pushes some to doubt the EPR will become operational this year. Nonetheless, France is ramping up its nuclear energy production - something that seemed unthinkable less than a decade ago, due to changeable political views on the matter.

Britain is at risk of blackouts within the next four years as a result of a "perfect storm", according to a report from research group Public First. The closure of nuclear power stations still in service, delays in the delivery of French-built Hinkley Point C and rising energy demands because of net zero means the UK will be facing a "crunch point" around 2028, claims the report entitled: Mind the Gap: Exploring Britain's Energy Crunch. Millions of homes potentially at riskThe report believes UK demand for power will go beyond baseload capacity by 7.5GW at peak times by 2028. That would leave ...
