How Modern Nuclear Power Protects Wildlife and Biodiversity
Nuclear energy has the lowest lifecycle impact on ecosystems of any power source, with wind and some solar panels following closely behind.
How Do Nuclear Power Plants Use Water?
Over 95% of operating nuclear plants use water for cooling. HTGRs flip the script, turning nuclear power from water consumer to protector.
Why Density Matters for Remote Energy Solutions
The physics of energy density and power density make Small Modular Reactors a robust, and sometimes the only, alternative to diesel plants in remote locations.
Minerals per Megawatt of Clean Energy
Nuclear provides a unique middle ground, offering low-carbon baseload power with a relatively small mineral footprint.
Understanding Radiation From Source to Safety
Advanced nuclear power comes with many layers of protection to ensure it is one of the safest ways to produce clean and reliable energy.
Improving Access to Telemedicine with Satellite Connectivity
Telemedicine brings the doctor’s office directly to the community through a digital screen. StarCore’s SMRs provide the stable internet and electricity it requires.
Helium’s Transformative Role in Nuclear Power
Helium-cooled reactors bring increased safety and efficiency to power new infrastructure with a lower impact on the environment and resources.
How Minerals Become Critical in a Changing Energy World
Minerals are naturally occurring substances that come from the earth and provide the raw materials for almost everything we use. Industries rely on minerals like iron to forge steel beams for skyscrapers and silicon to create the chips inside our phones. A mineral becomes “critical” when it plays an essential role in the economy but […]
Upgrading Remote Water Treatment with SMRs
Small Modular Reactors are an environmentally and economically friendly way to power remote water treatment facilities and protect related infrastructure in harsh climates.
Clean Tech for Meeting Peaking Energy Demand
To meet spikes in electricity demand, grid operators use fossil fuel peaking power plants. While essential, they are an outdated technology that harms people and the environment. Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) offer a clean and versatile alternative.
