Wind & Solar Chaos Driving Demand For Safe, Reliable & Affordable Nuclear Power

Nuclear power’s renaissance is the inevitable response to the wind and solar transition’s inevitable failure. Sunshine and weather-dependent solar and weather-dependent wind are no match for serious generation sources, like safe, reliable and affordable nuclear. Incapable of delivering electricity on demand, wind and solar have never been true competitors with coal, gas or nuclear power … Continue reading Wind & Solar Chaos Driving Demand For Safe, Reliable & Affordable Nuclear Power

First Movers: Russia and China Dominate Race for Nuclear Power Generation

Nuclear power doesn’t depend on the weather, it doesn’t require batteries and it doesn’t require backup, and it doesn’t depend upon the whims of despots and cartels that control the rare earths and minerals essential for the construction of wind turbines and solar panels. Uranium, the highly-concentrated energy source at its heart, is abundant and … Continue reading First Movers: Russia and China Dominate Race for Nuclear Power Generation

Nordic Nuclear Revival: Sweden to Build 10 Large Capacity Plants

Nordics are renowned for their practical, common sense, which is why the likes of Sweden and Finland are backing nuclear power like their nations depend on it. When Finland fired up its 1,600MW Olkiluoto 3 nuclear plant in April this year, power users were bound to notice that average spot electricity prices dropped from €245.98 per … Continue reading Nordic Nuclear Revival: Sweden to Build 10 Large Capacity Plants

Last Chance Saloon: Nuclear Shift Offers Best Hope For Affordable & Reliable Power

Without doubt, coal-fired power remains the cheapest and most reliable form of power generation, bar none. Which is why hundreds of new plants are being built across China, India, Indonesia and elsewhere in Asia. However, in Australia, and elsewhere in the deindustrialising West, coal-fired power has been declared public enemy number one by a cult … Continue reading Last Chance Saloon: Nuclear Shift Offers Best Hope For Affordable & Reliable Power

Don’t Follow the Leader: Learning From Europe’s Renewable Energy Disaster

Europe’s wind and solar ‘transition’ is like watching a train wreck on constant repeat. Germany led the charge and is suffering the inevitable and entirely predictable consequences, with crushing power prices and routine power rationing. Some of Germany’s neighbours had the wit and temerity to not play follow the leader, or were in a position … Continue reading Don’t Follow the Leader: Learning From Europe’s Renewable Energy Disaster

Energy SOS Means SMRs: Small Modular Reactors Offer Permanent Power Solution

  SMRs are no right-wing fantasy: 200 small nuclear reactors are presently powering 160 ships and submarines all around the world, and have been for decades. STT promotes nuclear power because it works: safe, affordable, reliable and the perfect foil for those worried about human-generated carbon dioxide gas – because it doesn’t generate any, while generating … Continue reading Energy SOS Means SMRs: Small Modular Reactors Offer Permanent Power Solution

Swedes Embrace Nuclear & Join Europe’s Grand Rejection Of Wind & Solar Transition

In the 1980s, the Swedes set out to ditch nuclear power and meet a 100% renewable energy target. Now, in the mother of all reversals, Sweden has decided to follow its neighbour - Finland - with its own move towards safe, reliable and affordable nuclear power. The Finns are well ahead of the curve. When Finland … Continue reading Swedes Embrace Nuclear & Join Europe’s Grand Rejection Of Wind & Solar Transition
