New York Power Authority plans to build 1GW+ nuclear generation resource.
New York’s governor is calling for the construction of the state’s first new nuclear power plant in decades. Gov. Kathy Hochul on Monday directed the state’s power authority to develop a plant in upstate New York. The Democrat says she envisioned an advanced facility that would help create a clean, reliable and affordable electric grid for the state. Hochul says the state needs to secure its “energy independence” if it wants to continue to attract large manufacturers. She wants the power authority to develop “at least” one new nuclear energy facility with a combined capacity of at least one gigawatt of electricity.

🔌 Texas + nuclear = big opportunity.
Perry: “Texas can be and will be a real leader in nuclear power.” With new tech emerging, nuclear could power data centers and the grid.

Twitter als community begint toch steeds minder aantrekkelijk te zijn. Ik haal er nog veel content af, omdat #EnergyTwitter nog heel erg honkvast is, maar ondertussen begeef je je bij het minste of geringste in een 'discussie' waarom fascisme en communisme even slecht zijn, want '100 miljoen doden'... Met als bron? ChatGPT en een of andere vage 'top 10' website.
Mijn god... 🤦♂️

https://reimagineappalachia.org/listening-session-reimagining-shuttered-coal-plants/
Thursday, October 5th from 3-5 PM EST: Shuttered coal plants across Appalachia were once the main source of good jobs and the foundation for community prosperity. Many are closed and more are being retired from service. Yet today there is new opportunity to turn them from liabilities into assets. New federal investment incentives position these blighted properties for redevelopment. Many of the new incentives require the community to have a strong voice in redevelopment planning. This listening session focuses on the potential and challenges in creating sustainable development at the sites of former coal plants, and how communities can have a strong voice in redevelopment planning.
Any hot takes on Meredith Angwin and her book Shorting the Grid?
Obviously bad for #energyTwitter and #climateTwitter, but also showing that the canary in the Musk mine is already half dead. #energyMastodon
