Europe Reconsiders Nuclear Energy Policies

6 days ago | oilprice.com | Haley Zaremba

Several European countries, including Italy, Spain, and Denmark, are reevaluating or overturning bans on nuclear power due to energy security concerns and grid challenges with renewable sources. While solar and wind remain crucial to Europe’s energy transition, the intermittent nature and grid integration issues are leading to consideration of nuclear energy as a supporting role, particularly small modular reactors.
Preventing Cascading Failures in Power Grids

1 week ago | oilprice.com | Haley Zaremba

Power grids are rapidly decentralizing, requiring a shift from centralized hubs to grid edge management for stability and responsiveness. Artificial intelligence at the grid edge is critical for managing increased energy demands, two-way energy flows, and vulnerabilities in aging grid systems. Modernizing the grid with intelligent computing and cutting-edge technologies is essential for handling variable energies, reducing outages, and ensuring energy security.
New Era of Nuclear Power Hinges on Seawater Uranium Extraction

Nuclear batteries offer a power source that can last for decades, utilizing radioactive materials and their decay to generate energy, making them ideal for remote and extreme environments. Both the United States and China are at the forefront of developing these nuclear battery technologies, with companies like Zeno Power and Betavolt producing advanced models for various applications.
The UK’s Green Energy Transition Faces Critical Slowdown Amid Growing Concerns

2 weeks ago | oilprice.com | Haley Zaremba

The UK's renewable energy projects are stalling, threatening Labour's goal of 95% clean energy by 2030 and leaving a widening gap in energy production. Massive job cuts in the North Sea's oil and gas sector are worsening economic insecurity, with renewable projects unable to fill the employment gap. Delays in clean energy development are raising concerns over Britain's energy security, potentially increasing reliance on volatile foreign gas markets.
How Carbon Capture Can Cut Maritime Emissions

3 weeks ago | oilprice.com | Haley Zaremba

The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has set historic emissions limits aiming for net-zero by 2050, effective from 2027 for large vessels. Wärtsilä's innovative carbon capture system could cut ship emissions by up to 70%, offering an economically viable path to compliance without scrapping fleets. While promising, carbon capture remains controversial, with critics arguing it may delay broader decarbonization efforts.
