Canuks preparing to double down on nuclear energy, looking to build up to 10 new reactors over the next 15 years, sell Canadian-made CANDU reactors to more countries and double uranium exports.
Plans: start construction two new large-scale reactors by 2035, 5 more to be planned or under development by 2040, and a microreactor to be finalized by 2035 and deployed to a remote community by the late 2030s. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/federal-nuclear-strategy-9.7244509 #Canada #NuclearEnergy #Candu #Nuclear #NuclearReactor #Energy #CNL #Uranium #AECL #CanGov #NuclearStrategy 🇨🇦

The trouble is I think that a solar farm, say, would have to be pretty huge to supply the power demand of just one mega data Centre. Remembering of course it would need a huge battery facility, also dedicated to the data centre.
I’m suspicious that the big tech companies could use data centres power demand as a way to force Australia to start installing small fission nuclear reactors dedicated to data centre supply.
Time for the government to stand up to this bullshit.

I know it's old news, but when I saw mention of this just now, a lot of #despair arose for me. The crash is ramping up and it's going to hurt when it comes. It already hurts now.

I'm using this as my wallpaper now, and it's cool enough I want to share it: it's a picture of the Advanced Test Reactor (the blue glow is from Cherenkov radiation in the reactor pool). I lightly edited it to give a more sci-fi-concept-art ambiance.

#SouthernCalifornia #wildfires force evacuations, and one is threatening a #nuclear facility
Evacuations remain in place for fires burning in #Ventura and #Riverside counties. The Sandy Fire in #SimiValley is burning near the #SantaSusanaFieldLaboratory, a former #NuclearReactor site, raising #AirQuality concerns.
By Emilee Speck, AccuWeather staff writer
Published May 21, 2026 1:08 PM EDT | Updated May 22, 2026 12:04 PM EDT
Excerpt: "Due to the Sandy Fire’s proximity to the Santa Susana Field Laboratory, a former nuclear reactor and rocket testing facility, officials are conducting air quality monitoring around the fire perimeter.
" 'Monitoring equipment has been proactively deployed to establish background air quality readings and to help assess conditions should the fire advance further into the area,' according to CAL Fire. 'At this time, the fire has not crossed into the Field Laboratory property.'
"Nuclear cleanup continues more than 50 years after a nuclear reactor mishap at the #Rocketdyne site. Fire crews are prioritizing the protection of the facility and the surrounding communities. "

#NuclearReactor Backed by #BillGates Gets Federal Approval
#TerraPower’s project in #Wyoming, which uses novel technology, is the first new commercial reactor to receive federal approval in decade.
TerraPower design, which it calls #Natrium developed with GE Hitachi, has several novel features. Probably most notable of these is the use of liquid #sodium for cooling and heat transfer.
Plant won’t be done until 2030 at the earliest, and it still needs an operating license.
