Small Modular Nuclear Reactors for the Chemical Industry - 2024

​​A comprehensive Special Report on small modular nuclear reactors (nuclear SMRs) as a low carbon intensity source of energy for the chemical and fuel industries.  This report tackles the complex ownership, project management, regulatory and process challenges inherent in manufacturing applications of nuclear SMRs, covering seven newly commercializing developers in detail, with a focus on PWR, BWR, and HTGR technologies.  It features a critical approach to cost claims, analyzing recent poor cost performance of nuclear deployment and identifying sources of cost inflation and best practices, and provides levelized cost of energy estimates for each examined developer, as well as cash cost estimates for two hydrogen production processes optimized to use nuclear energy.  ​

Advanced Battery Energy Storage Systems (2024 Program)

Advanced battery energy storage systems (BESS) are growing in importance with declining costs and increased integration with intermittent renewable power sources (e.g., solar PV and wind). Advanced BESS units plus renewable power are becoming a greater part of overall power generation mix while reducing carbon footprint, achieving decarbonization targets, and enhancing sustainability. Advanced BESS units also play an important role in many commercial and industrial applications as well as production of green ammonia, green methanol, and renewable and specialty chemicals’ industries. Current BESS units’ supply chains incorporate various commercially proven battery chemistries and technologies along with efficient subsystems, equipment, and components.
