Power generation is no longer a single-technology business. A utility that ran combined cycle gas plants five years ago is now as likely to be balancing wind, battery storage, and grid-support services from the same control room. The assets are more varied, the interfaces more numerous, and the demands for keeping it all synchronized and […]

Activated metallic components generated during reactor operation, maintenance, and decommissioning rarely present a uniform packaging challenge. They can vary widely in shape, mass, dose rate, and radiation profile, and may include thimble plug assemblies (TPA), poison rod assemblies (PRA), reactor control cluster assemblies (RCCA), rod segments, and cut portions of vessel internals. Managing these materials […]

What does the upcoming European Union (EU) Battery Passport look like to many energy executives? Another regulatory requirement. Another documentation demand. Another checkbox. In other words, another headache. But viewing a battery passport as merely a component of compliance infrastructure overlooks its potential as a key piece of financial infrastructure. Why? Because second-life batteries have […]

Data released by energy officials in India shows that more than half of the country’s coal-fired power units are operating with low stockpiles of fuel, as power demand surges and generation from other resources lags.

When no suitable vessel was available to carry its gas turbine generators from the U.S. to Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea coast, the Rabigh Reinforcement project team turned to the heavy-lift charter market at a time when shipping conditions were already challenging. Drawing on its logistics experience and global agreements, the consortium engaged one of the […]

For most Americans, electricity is so woven into daily life that we rarely consider what its absence means. Hospitals depend on it to preserve medicines and operate equipment. Schools, factories, farms, and businesses depend on it to function. Reliable electricity is one of the foundations of a modern economy. COMMENTARY Yet 655 million people worldwide […]
