Microreactors could be deployed within 48 hours to provide power for disaster relief. Think wildfires, hurricanes, and tornadoes. In a chat with Alexander C. Kaufman at the Energy Imperatives Summit, Dr. Rita Baranwal of Radiant explains how advanced nuclear can strengthen resilience when the grid is under stress.

@AlexCKaufman @RitaB66 @RadiantNuclear 48-hour deployment requires pre-certification. ASN makes this impossible in France. FANR's licensing for Barakah showed what streamlined nuclear regulation delivers. Which jurisdictions will act first on microreactors?

The CMEC-963 months ago

@AlexCKaufman @RitaB66 @RadiantNuclear The CMEC-96 could be.... there and not affected at all. Heck it even has plans to be rolled out in shipping containers for this but the biggest i must say would be its non-nuclear and fossil fuel free. Oh and can be scaled to fit the needs of an area.

@AlexCKaufman @RitaB66 @RadiantNuclear Ridiculous idea/proposal - its nuclear! - @grok please explain all the problems, risks, dangers inherent in this not forgetting costs & safety

Jensen Huang predicts within a decade, companies will build their own small nuclear reactors to power AI factories. HUANG: "In the next six, seven years, I think you're going to see a whole bunch of small nuclear reactors. We'll all be power generators. ... it takes the burden off the grid, you could build as much as you need, and you can contribute back to the grid."

🇺🇸 DEPARTMENT OF WAR AIRLIFTS NEXT-GEN NUCLEAR REACTOR TO UTAH IN MAJOR ENERGY MILESTONE A C-17 just transported a next-generation nuclear reactor from California to Utah for testing at the San Rafael Energy Lab. The goal: assess how advanced nuclear systems can power military installations and remote defense operations. War Secretary Hegseth: "We're going to have the lights on and AI operating when others are not because of our nuclear capabilities." Source: Department of War / Fox News

"The grid itself is civilization." Radiant CEO Doug Bernauer on productizing nuclear energy: "Nuclear reactors as products has never been seen before." "They're always usually these giant mega projects where you dig a huge hole in the ground and you take 5 to 10 years." "We're targeting one per week coming off of a production line." "Our product is for off the grid. So a megawatt reactor on a trailer." "We drive it or fly it to where the customer wants it to go and then turn it on within like 48 hours." "It lasts 5 years… 2 million gallon diesel equivalent." "So it's sort of an unbelievable thing where you can grow the grid or put a micro grid anywhere." Doug Bernauer Radiant

Nuclear power is clean, cost-effective and reliable source of energy ⚛️ Here's Philip Hunt taking a tour of Hinkley Point C which is just one project working to boost skills and jobs for local communities to help power millions of homes in the future with nuclear energy.

A major gas field in the UK could supply over 10% of the UK's energy, but that gas isn't destined for the grid. The plan instead is to extract it on site, burn it in a local power plant, and use that electricity to mine bitcoin. The energy will be consumed at the source, because that route is simpler and more profitable. Taxes, regulation and grid constraints all add friction. The gas could power homes. It isn't. Because burning it on site makes more money. That is a damning indictment of UK energy policy.

AMERICA’S FRAGILE GRID IS MAKING OFF-GRID POWER LOOK SMARTER EVERY DAY The cost of going off grid is becoming impossible to ignore. Climate activists and EV hype helped turn electric everything into a moral badge, but America’s power grid is under growing strain, and AI data centers are making that pressure worse. With oil refineries burning around the world and the grid growing more fragile, how can we protect power when the system fails? Relying on one overloaded grid could be disastrous, especially when backup options are no longer optional. Mike Adams (HealthRanger) breaks down why backup power is essential, and why solar and other off-grid options are more reliable when crisis hits.

$600bn, 4% of the grid, Not ready til the 2040s 👆These are all LIES about nuclear power Here's the facts: 1/ '$600bn Cost' This figure is from the 'Smart' Energy Council (renewable lobby group). It extrapolates the cost of Hinkley C (the most expensive nuclear power plant ever) and literally doubles it. Even the CSIRO assumes lower nuclear capital costs for Australia. 2/ '4% of the grid' This figure is also from the 'Smart' Energy Council from dividing 11GW of nuclear capacity by 300GW of renewable capacity. However, Capacity ≠ Generation. 1GW of renewable capacity generates roughly a third of the power of 1GW of nuclear capacity. 3/ 'Not ready til the 2040s' The IAEA predicts it would take 10-15 years for a new to nuclear country to have nuclear power. The is the advice the Australian Government relies on for nuclear yet is being ignored by the PM & Energy Minister. These claims must be exposed. The nuclear disinformation campaign has gone too far. Also, no wonder the private sector isn't interested in nuclear in Australia. It's literally illegal right now in Australia. Learn more about nuclear: ✍️Sign to lift the ban:

Nuclear power is back. After decades of stagnation, people are starting to wonder how we can build nuclear reactors as quickly and cheaply as we did in the 20th Century I sat down with Alex Chalmers and Ben Southwood to talk about why nuclear power can be so good, why it flopped, and how to get it back again. We discuss: • The astonishing energy density of uranium – 100g of it produces the same energy as 1.5 tons of coal – and why it matters • Why nearly every country in the world forgot how to do cheap nuclear at the same time • How the French state built 37 reactors in ten years • Why even solar power optimists should want a nuclear renaissance Plus: Why nuclear meltdowns aren't as scary as people think! Listen now. Links below! Spotify: Apple: Youtube:

The next big AI trade may not be a tech stock. AI, data centers, and a growing economy all need more power, and America’s grid is already stretched. That is why I’m looking at nuclear energy and uranium. The U.S. consumes roughly 50 million pounds of uranium a year and produces only about one million. If nuclear becomes a bigger part of the energy solution, demand for uranium could become enormous.

Trawsfynydd Nuclear Power Station. Hands down nuclear power is the safest and most abundant source of energy mankind has ever discovered. It is clean, can be reusable (breeder reactors), and has a body count far far less than all other energy production methods. It is the epitome of green. Which is why they dont want you to have it and deliberately conflate nuclear power with nuclear weapons. Meanwhile all the major tech companies are planning to build small modular nuclear power stations for their data centres whilst pushing the green agenda.

The UAE is revolutionizing renewable energy and turning it into baseload power with the launch of a state-of-the-art solar project that will produce energy at scale around the clock. Delivering up to 1 gigawatt (GW) of uninterrupted clean power, the project will feature a 5.2GW solar plant, coupled with a 19 gigawatt-hour (GWh) battery energy storage system. At the opening of Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week (ADSW) 2025, Dr. Sultan Al Jaber, UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology and Chairman of Masdar, announced that the facility will be able to provide uninterrupted power for use in artificial intelligence (AI) development, which is set to grow exponentially in usage. This year, 13 heads of state and over 140 ministers and government officials are participating in ADSW.
