Two further respondents – StarCore Nuclear and Terrestrial Energy – have advanced to the second stage of Canadian Nuclear Laboratories’ (CNL’s) process to site a small modular reactor (SMR) demonstration unit at one of its managed campuses.
StarCore’s Ross Elliott explains how Small Modular Reactors are a fixed-cost block that can be popped in to provide enough power and heat for operations, water treatment, heating and more
Helium-cooled reactors bring increased safety and efficiency to power new infrastructure with a lower impact on the environment and resources.
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
Small Modular Reactors are an environmentally and economically friendly way to power remote water treatment facilities and protect related infrastructure in harsh climates.
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 While essential, they are an outdated technology that harms people and the environment.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.
Combining the versatile energy from Small Modular Reactors with climate-proof Controlled Environment Agriculture puts remote and northern communities in control of building their food systems in ways that align with their culture and preferences without compromising on energy security or environmental impact.
