Potential for a Baltic Hydrogen Offshore Backbone European hydrogen production can be set up very well in the southern countries of Europe, especially in countries like Spain and Portugal, due to very good solar resources. But it can also be established in the North Sea area and in the Scandinavian countries, where wind conditions are good. This study takes the results of the previous..

NuScale Power, the front-runner in the race to commercialize small modular reactors (SMRs), has bagged another major backer that could broaden its nuclear supply chain base and expand its financial standing.
On April 29, NuScale signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Doosan Heavy Industries and Construction (DHIC), a South Korean–based engineering, procurement, and construction contractor with a wide global network, that supports deployment of NuScale’s Power Module worldwide. “The relationship includes DHIC, a member of the Doosan Group, and potential Korean financial investors, which, commensurate to final due diligence, plan to make a cash equity investment in NuScale,” NuScale said on Monday.
DHIC, which has an integrated manufacturing facility in Changwon, South Korea, that it says is “capable of raw material production to final assembly of nuclear components,” has supplied 32 nuclear reactor vessels and 114 steam generators for nuclear plants in South Korea, China, the U.S., and the United Arab Emirates.
Under the MOU, the companies will negotiate a strategic supplier agreement by July 2019 that would task DHIC with building a portion of the Power Module’s “most critical and complex” sub-assemblies for the plant that NuScale is developing for Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems (UAMPS), the companies said.…
The possible new operator of the largest coal-fired power plant in the western U.S. told Arizona regulators this week the company would run the Navajo Generating Station (NGS) at less than half its installed generation capacity in order to maintain profitability. An official for Illinois-based Middle River Power (MRP) also said the plant would operate with fewer workers and would pursue a new lease and coal supply agreement.
The current owners of the 2,250-MW Navajo station in Page, Arizona, which include Arizona Public Service (APS), have said they plan to close the plant in 2019 unless it can be sold. Negotiations are continuing with New York-based Avenue Capital Group, a global investment firm that invests in distressed companies and the distressed debt market, as the potential new owner, with MRP—headquartered in the Chicago suburb of Deerfield—as the potential new operator. Russell Begaye, president of the Navajo Nation on whose land the plant sits, recently said a lease agreement with Avenue Capital and MRP could be discussed by tribal lawmakers at a meeting in October.…
