The conversation around energy is changing fast. With growing concerns about energy security, climate targets, and the increasing pressure to meet rising global energy demand, solutions that were once considered far-fetched are now being pursued seriously. Space-based solar power (SBSP) is one of those solutions, and the upcoming International Conference on Energy from Space 2025 […] The post 24/7 Solar Power: Why Energy and Space Leaders Are Gathering This November…
In a new pilot program, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) issued an ambitious challenge: bring at least three advanced nuclear test reactors to criticality by July 4, 2026. Announced in June, the program sidesteps traditional Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) licensing, seeking instead to authorize full-scale reactors on private sites through DOE’s internal review process.
