SWANSEA: City’s university joins £65m national mission to overhaul UK nuclear power

The Swansea institution will be a key partner in the new DRIVERS (Developing Researchers with an Interdisciplinary Vision for Engineering Reactor Systems) initiative.

The project brings together experts from Swansea University, Imperial College London, Bangor University, the University of Bristol, and the University of Manchester.

The UK Government says the funding, delivered by UK Research and Innovation, will train a new generation of scientists to secure Britain’s energy future.

Swansea’s specialists will focus on critical areas including reactor physics, thermal hydraulics, and the structural integrity of advanced reactor components.

The team will also develop innovative digital tools designed to accelerate the design and operation of future nuclear reactors.

It comes as the government announces a total overhaul of the nuclear planning system to build new infrastructure faster and cheaper.

The move is part of a wider mission to end Britain’s dependence on “volatile” foreign fossil fuel markets and deliver homegrown power.

Energy Secretary Ed Miliband said: “We need to go further and faster to build the clean energy we need to get off volatile fossil fuel markets.”

The DRIVERS programme is one of seven research initiatives backed by the new funding, which will be matched by industry partners.

Across the UK, more than 500 doctoral students will be trained to support the clean energy mission and the national nuclear deterrent.

The government believes the “clean energy superpower” mission will support tens of thousands of skilled jobs nationwide by 2030.

Swansea University’s involvement ensures the city plays a part in research of “critical importance” to national security.

It follows other major local developments, such as the £130k permanent Covid memorial planned for the seafront.

Chancellor Rachel Reeves added: “To build national resilience, drive energy security and deliver economic growth, we need nuclear.”

“We’re overhauling the system, getting rid of duplicative or overly complex guidance that has been holding back our nuclear ambitions.”

The investment is expected to support 65,000 highly skilled, well-paid jobs across the sector over the next decade.

#Epstein and #RobertKennedyJr., were on #PineRidge '#FossilHunting'

By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, Feb. 13, 2026

Excerpt: "In related news, former New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson's is in the Epstein files.

The horrific abuse of children now being exposed in the Epstein files includes these facts: The #ZorroRanch in #NewMexico was never searched, and is now believed to have the bodies of young victims buried there.

"Former New Mexico Gov. #BillRichardson, who was deeply involved in energy negotiations in Indian country, was in contact with Epstein for years. Richardson is among those named by one of the underage girls as being responsible for abusing her. She also named #PrinceAndrew.

"The United Nations is also included in the horrific scheme. #GhislaineMaxwell promoted her #TerraMar, a false front non-profit claiming to protect the oceans, during years of testimony at the U.N.

"The University of Arizona in Tucson was among those who received a grant from Epstein's Gratitude 'non-profit.'

"These are just a few of the facts being exposed in the millions of Epstein's files now being released.

"Gov. Richardson's involvement with energy in #IndianCountry was during the same years that #TexHall rose to so-called glory.

"Hall, the #EnergyCzar from #FortBerthold in #NorthDakota, headed the National Congress of American Indians, and brought in massive #OilAndGas wells to the Three Affiliated Tribes in North Dakota. Hall's business associate was later convicted in the two murders for hire of their other business partners.

"Hall and Gov. Richardson were energy czars in Indian country, during the years when Richardson served as New Mexico Governor and U.S. #EnergySecretary."

Small nuke reactors are really coming online by next year, #US #EnergySecretary #ChrisWright insists
The #UnitedStates #Nuclear Regulatory Commission has only approved two #SMR designs for commercial construction, both are actually iterations of the same design from #NuScale, one able to produce 50 MW of energy and an upgraded 77 MW model. For reference, typical #datacenter uses between 5 and 10 MW, but the mega-datacenters favored by hyperscalers can require up to 100MW.

#EnergySecretary Attacks #OffshoreWind and Dismisses #ClimateChange
Former #fracking exec, #ChrisWright said focus in #US to transition away from #fossilfuels had hurt country, called climate change “not incredibly important.” It’s a message he said he intended to take to Europe, where he will encourage countries to buy more American gas. US is currently the world’s biggest exporter of liquefied #naturalgas as well as the largest producer of #oil.

#Trump Picks #ClimateDenying #Oil&Gas Magnate as #EnergySecretary. He Once Drank #FrackingFluid on Live TV

#DemocracyNow, November 18, 2024

"As we broadcast all week from the #COP29 talks in #Azerbaijan, we look at what Donald Trump’s reelection as U.S. president means for the #climate. #CleanEnergy and #environmental advocates are raising alarm over Trump’s picks for key roles in his administration, including #fracking magnate #ChrisWright to serve as energy secretary and #NorthDakota Governor #DougBurgum to lead the #InteriorDepartment, where he could greatly expand #drilling on #FederalLands. #Burgum, a major ally of the #FossilFuel industry, was also tapped to head a newly created #NationalEnergyCouncil aimed at increasing oil and gas production.

"For more on the #WhiteHouse transition, we speak with #ManishBapna, president of the Natural Resources Defense Council [#NRDC] and Natural Resources Defense Council Action. He calls Trump’s picks 'deeply troubling' but says there is still room for optimism. 'The clean energy transition in the United States is unstoppable. It’s going to hit some speed bumps now, but it will move forward,' says Bapna."
