Power and energy construction projects face unique challenges that make effective risk allocation critical to their success. A well-crafted contract serves as the foundation for managing these risks, helping

In a 2023 report, McKinsey & Company projected 35 GW of new power will be needed for data centers in the U.S. by 2030. This forecast doubled the required power consumption from data servers, up from 17 GW in 2022. The explosive growth in data center infrastructure driven by investments in artificial intelligence (AI) is […]

Geothermal energy is the heat originating from beneath the Earth’s surface. It can be utilized for various purposes, such as electricity generation, heating, and cooling. Geothermal power plants harness this heat to produce electricity, with turbines playing a key role in converting thermal energy into mechanical energy, which is then transformed into electrical energy. Geothermal […]

Energy storage systems (ESS) are critical for grid stability as renewable energy adoption accelerates, but safety concerns have emerged due to fire hazards in lithium-ion batteries. Korea Electric Power

Does it really make sense to manufacture new batteries for energy storage systems when a much better alternative is already available? How second-life electric vehicle (EV) batteries can enhance energy

This whitepaper from SimuTech Group explores how multiphysics simulation helps engineers solve performance and reliability challenges across the energy generation industry. Covering structural, thermal, fluid, and electromagnetic domains, it highlights practical applications across fossil, nuclear, hydro, wind, solar, and hydrogen systems. Backed by 40+ years of experience, SimuTech Group offers proven strategies to accelerate innovation […]

The current fleet of nuclear reactors are based in huge imposing facilities generally located in isolated locations away from population centers.  This need not be the case. In the near future nuclear reactors will be regarded as portable, modular sources of safe and clean energy. Rather than being located in remote facilities hundreds of miles […]

The Trump administration has released a second loan disbursement of $56.8 million to Holtec International as part of an up to $1.52 billion loan guarantee for the restart of the 800-MW Palisades Nuclear Plant in Michigan. The funding, a key step in reviving the shuttered facility, reinforces a loan guarantee initially issued under the Biden […]

Among the various types of valves on the market, ball valves are critical in high-pressure systems, enabling precise fluid control in industries like power generation, chemical processing, and oil and gas. Although they’re designed to handle extreme operational demands, the intense conditions of high-pressure environments make regular maintenance or replacement essential to minimize downtime, extend […]

Electric Hydrogen, a global manufacturer of high-power electrolyzer plants, on March 6 announced a strategic partnership with Titan, a Texas-based process equipment manufacturing group, for the fabrication and assembly of its 100-MW electrolyzer plant product.
