How nuclear power can be used on ships safely

How nuclear power can be used on ships safely

by Mariska Buitendijk | Oct 19, 2022 | Emissions, Energy transition, Marine fuels, News, Nuclear, Ship design, Ship propulsion, Shipping

Safety underpins any nuclear project. In its latest webinar, Core Power says its nuclear reactor for ships will change the risk profile of nuclear from low risk/high impact to very low risk/very low impact. It plans to achieve this through the modular reactor’s...
‘Nuclear only option that decarbonises and lowers cost when compared to marine e-fuels’

‘Nuclear only option that decarbonises and lowers cost when compared to marine e-fuels’

by Mariska Buitendijk | Sep 7, 2022 | Emissions, Energy transition, Marine fuels, News, Nuclear, Ship propulsion, Shipping

Nuclear could see the industry move away from the slow-steaming, 20,000-TEU sized container ships, to both fewer and much smaller and faster ships. A potentially disruptive technology, says Core Power, but also the only decarbonisation option that could actually make...

Core Power and MIT secure funding for floating nuclear research project

by Mariska Buitendijk | Sep 1, 2022 | Emissions, Energy transition, Marine fuels, Maritime research, News, Nuclear, Ship propulsion, Shipping

The US Department of Energy’s Nuclear Energy University Program (NEUP) has granted research funds to the MIT Energy Initiative, Core Power, and the Idaho National Laboratory for a three-year study into the development of offshore floating nuclear power generation in...
Core Power unveils nuclear/ammonia fuel solution for North Atlantic green corridor

Core Power unveils nuclear/ammonia fuel solution for North Atlantic green corridor

by Mariska Buitendijk | Aug 12, 2022 | Emissions, Energy transition, Marine fuels, News, Ship propulsion, Shipping

Core Power has shown how “green fuel” for shipping can be produced reliably at low cost using a floating nuclear power plant design combined with an ammonia refinery at either end of green corridors. Such corridors were proposed in the Clydebank...
The three key criteria for new-nuclear in maritime

The three key criteria for new-nuclear in maritime

by Mariska Buitendijk | Jul 26, 2022 | Emissions, Energy transition, Marine fuels, Maritime research, News, Ship propulsion, Shipping

With modern advancements in fuel management, reactor safety, and manufacturing, some new-nuclear reactors are looking increasingly viable for use in marine applications. However, certain criteria exist for applications in the marine environment that nuclear reactors...
