The Future Role of On-site Power Generation
State of the Market Report | July 20, 2021
The decarbonization and decentralization of the energy system have spurred on‑site power generation at the residential level, with rising deployments of rooftop solar systems and behind‑the‑meter batteries. In parallel, on‑site generation has seen adoption in commercial and industrial (C&I) ... Not part of subscription
Nuclear fission will contribute to the energy transition only if governments decide they need it
Analyst Insight | December 15, 2021

The funding will go to nine projects under Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy's (ARPA-E) GEMINA program. Specifically, the focus is to develop digital twin technology using AI, advanced control systems, predictive maintenance, and model-based fault detection to reduce O&M costs tenfold in the next generation of nuclear power plants and make reactors more flexible in the face of rising renewable penetrations. Clients, advanced nuclear reactors based on novel reactor and power plant designs will certainly face new and unexpected operational challenges and thus O&M cost concerns. This announcement is an important step toward improving the odds that advanced reactors, once commercialized, can compete with incumbent thermal power assets.
