KEY TAKEAWAYSSmall modular reactors (SMRs) are the future of nuclear power, and they could become an important strategic export industry in the next two decades. SMRs must get to sufficient scale so they can become cost competitive with other energy sources including large reactors, renewables, and fossil fuels. DOE needs to develop independent assessment capabilities for SMRs (and other technologies) that focus on the pathway to price and performance parity (P3).

The Biden era of clean energy policy is over. Not only has President Trump already started dismantling his predecessor’s programs, but core assumptions that went into them are also dissolving. Biden relied on subsidies and mandates to drive clean energy forward.

Today, solar and wind are relatively low cost, and prices will likely fall further. But they are not like fossil fuels—they are what’s known as variable renewable energy (VRE)—meaning they only produce electricity when the sun shines or the wind blows. kAm$@>6E:>6D E9:D G2C:2E:@? :D AC65:4E23=6] u@C 6I2>A=6[ D@=2C 5@6D?’E 86?6C2E6 A@H6C 2E ?:89E[ 2?5 86?6C2E6D =6DD A@H6C :?

Amazon just announced 77 grads from its tech training program. Not announced: how many started, how many entered this year. Great for the grads, but is it significant?#Amazon #training #workforce https://t.co/9L1W7vuokQ
Amazon’s WorkingWell just seems like an attempt to do standard machine maintenance on humans. #Amazon #warehouse #healthcare https://t.co/KJ7Pm82IkE via @Verge
