As we navigate the intricate landscape of energy policy, it becomes evident that our focus on advanced nuclear innovation and a resilient energy grid is imperative and sets the stage for a future characterized by environmental stewardship, economic growth and energy security.
We believe innovative solutions are needed now more than ever and the best way to find them would be to involve industry experts that actually understand the potential impacts on the electric system and consumers.
The WSU Tri-Cities program includes an ambassador network that connects students with mentors, as well as the development of an energy and sustainability certificate that will help students on the path to future careers. The idea is to empower students to bring their unique backgrounds and expertiseto clean energy and climate innovation.
A new alliance dedicated to helping the Mid-Columbia region transition to a “reliable and resilient clean energy future” has tapped its first executive director.
The U.S. Department of Energy has picked the Pacific Northwest Hydrogen Association’s PNWH2 Hub as one of the seven regional clean hydrogen hubs designed to kickstart clean hydrogen production in the country, cut down on carbon dioxide emissions and create tens of thousands of good-paying jobs.
Plans for an advanced small modular nuclear reactor project in the Tri-Cities area that will generate carbon-free electricity have taken a major step forward.
Energy Northwest, which operates the Columbia Generating Station north of Richland and several other clean energy generating facilities,
President Joe Biden is unwisely “throttling up” plans to ditch carbon fuels unilaterally despite the extreme consequences of doing so. He wants to accelerate replacement of gas/diesel vehicles with electrics (EVs), which will be recharged by electrical grids energized by solar, wind and hydropower – not coal, natural...
It’s past time for an energy reality check. If we are to meet our soaring demand for electricity and produce it without coal and natural gas, we must double down on nuclear power. Today, U.S. nuclear plants generate enough electricity to power more than 70 million homes. It’s the most reliable source...
