AI's voracious energy appetite is straining already outdated power grids. Here's how nuclear and solar energy could fix that.
The Abundant Resource Solar energy is the most plentiful energy resource available on our planet. Every hour, enough sunlight hits the Earth to power the entire world for a year. Imagine a source so abundant that it practically dwarfs any other renewable option in scope and promise.
By the 1970s and 1980s, nuclear power plants became integral to the country’s electricity supply, providing a stable and substantial portion of the nation’s energy.
With wind energy facing a deep freeze from Washington, Gov. Hochul’s call for advancing nuclear power may prove crucial for the state to hit climate targets while courting energy-hungry high tech, experts said.
After seeming out of step with Biden, Knoxville's big utility could find stronger footing in Trump's fossil-fueled energy agenda.
America leads the world in energy dominance, excelling in oil, gas, renewables, and biofuels. Explore how U.S. innovation and production drive global energy leadership.
After years of attempts to open Colorado up to nuclear energy, a bill before the legislature this year is showing new promise for the effort as Democrats sign up as co-sponsors alongside the
Solar generation for the first 11 months of 2024 increased by over 26%, according to the US EIA's latest monthly report.
Two of Donald Trump’s former Cabinet secretaries are outlining a vision for American energy dominance that embraces all forms of power production — even green sources the president has ridiculed.
Global nuclear energy production is set to reach a record high in 2025, driven by increased investment and growing demand.
The RPS uses two Stirling engines to convert the heat generated by the decay of Plutonium-238 (Pu-238) into electricity.
But nuclear’s recent history has been beset by cost overruns and delays. The fresh crop of nuclear startups were largely founded to overcome those hurdles by modularizing and mass-producing reactor components. If all goes as planned, the approach could speed approvals and construction of new nuclear plants.
