At GasTec 2025, U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright made bold claims on gas, nuclear, and net zero. Here’s what holds up — and what doesn’t.

Natura Resources secured HALEU fuel and a first-ever NRC permit for its MSR-1 reactor. The project is now positioned to lead U.S. molten salt reactor deployment.

DOE launches DPA Consortium to secure nuclear fuel supply chains, reduce reliance on foreign uranium, and strengthen U.S. energy independence.

ENLIGHT will recycle irradiated graphite and develop a domestic supply chain, bolstering UK nuclear energy security and supporting net zero goals.

DOE partners with 11 advanced reactor developers, targeting three operational test reactors by July 4, 2026, to accelerate U.S. nuclear innovation.

Texas may face a 40 GW power gap by 2035 as energy demand spikes. Data centers, EVs, and water shortages are testing the grid’s ability to keep up.

Standard Nuclear will build a TRISO fuel facility under DOE’s pilot program to reduce reliance on foreign uranium and support next-gen nuclear reactors.

UC Riverside researchers developed a 3D imaging tool that reveals how light and heat interact in solar materials. The insights could reshape solar device design.

Helion has broken ground on its Orion fusion plant in Washington. Backed by Microsoft, the project targets grid-connected fusion power by 2028.

Premier American Uranium expands mineralization trends at its Cyclone ISR Project in Wyoming while advancing exploration across Colorado and New Mexico.

A new U.S. group wants fusion energy treated as a national priority. They warn China’s lead in the tech could reshape global power and energy dominance.

ARC completes Phase 2 of CNSC’s SMR design review, clearing a major milestone for ARC-100 deployment in New Brunswick and strengthening Canada’s nuclear leadership.

In the past two years, half the states have taken action to promote nuclear power, from creating nuclear task forces to integrating nuclear into long-term energy plans.

Decades of nuclear waste gridlock may finally end. A new plan backs tech and policy changes to safely manage America’s spent fuel.

Spending bill repeals key Inflation Reduction Act tax credits, creating uncertainty for clean energy, EVs, and climate policy in the U.S.

In the shadow of Three Mile Island’s iconic cooling towers, state Rep. Tom Mehaffie recalled Wednesday how his father, 50 years earlier, built a career and a life around the nuclear power plant.

As clean energy demand grows, advanced nuclear is stepping into a more central role. A new model blending nuclear, renewables, and hydrogen could offer the firm, carbon-free power needed to support data centers and climate goals.

Gov. Hochul directs NYPA to build a 1 GW nuclear plant, reversing course after Indian Point closure. Project aims to power AI growth and ensure grid reliability.

The U.S. Department of Energy has disbursed $100.5 million to Holtec for the Palisades Nuclear Plant restart, reinforcing federal momentum behind America's first commercial reactor comeback.
