Who's powering nuclear energy's comeback?

Nuclear energy hasn't been a growing industry in decades. But now, it seems to be making a comeback. This week, the Biden administration announced a goal to triple nuclear energy capacity in the US by 2050. And over the past few months, Amazon, Microsoft, and Google have all made deals to use nuclear energy to power their artificial intelligence appetites. Today on the show, could nuclear energy work differently this time?

OSCE briefs students in Turkmenistan on energy security

ASHGABAT, 6 May 2016 – Some 60 students at Turkmenistan’s International University of Oil and Gas attended an OSCE-organized seminar on energy security and the role of international organizations in energy-related issues that took place in Ashgabat today.

The OSCE Centre in Ashgabat organized the event to build the students’ capacity in the area of energy diplomacy and enhance their awareness about best international practices in energy governance and security area, as well as current trends in global energy markets.

“Energy security is an integral part of the OSCE’s comprehensive security concept and the OSCE participating States adopted a number of important documents with energy-related commitments, including in the field of sustainable energy and the protection of critical energy infrastructure,” said Daniel Kroos, Senior Energy Security Officer at the Office of the Co-ordinator of OSCE Economic and Environmental Activities who was one of the speakers at the lecture..

During the lecture, OSCE experts focused on the reliable and stable transit of energy resources, the current challenges in the oil and gas sector and perspectives for the development of renewable energy. OSCE activities in the field of energy security and lessons learnt in the area of energy transition were also presented.

“As Turkmenistan is demonstrating a clear commitment to promote an international dialogue on energy security, the OSCE Centre in Ashgabat is pleased to continue and expand its successful co-operation with the country’s government on energy-related issues, by reaching out to students who represent the future generation of energy experts in Turkmenistan,” added Richard Wheeler, Political Officer of the OSCE Centre in Ashgabat who was the other speaker at the event.

Dutch startup Sympower secures €21M to balance out the energy grid


Amsterdam-based startup Sympower has secured €21mn as it looks to scale its grid-balancing technology. Sympower partners with businesses that use a large amount of electricity. It gains access to some of their energy assets and can turn them on and off when the grid requires balancing — a process called demand response. Sympower’s software platform uses AI to analyse data and optimise when and how much power businesses can sell at any given time, making energy use adjustments more effective and profitable for all parties.  Grid operators pay Sympower to stabilise the energy supply. The company passes most of that…
