Chinese scientists achieved a breakthrough in clean energy technology by adding fresh fuel to an operational thorium reactor.

The design of an integral pressurized water reactor (IPWR) focuses on enhancing the safety and reliability of the reactor by incorporating a number of inherent safety features and engineered safety ...

This marks the first time anyone has successfully reloaded fuel in an operational thorium molten salt reactor (MSR) without ...

What if the next big thing in nuclear energy was a dusty old idea from the Cold War era? Once considered to power nuclear bombers, Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) are in the spotlight, promising safer, ...

NPCIL is garnering interest from other central PSUs like Indian Oil Corporation and Indian Railways for joint nuclear power ...

NTPC , India's top power producer, is seeking global partners to build large nuclear reactors with about 15 gigawatts (GW) combined capacity, according to a tender, the first major one since the ...

ANEEL could soon become the fuel of choice for countries that operate CANDU (Canada Deuterium Uranium) and PHWR (Pressurized Heavy Water Reactor) reactors such as China, India, Argentina ...

The world has relied largely on the same pressurized-water reactor technology for the past 70 years, but those plants have proven incredibly expensive to build in the U.S. in the 21st century.

Only four nuclear-powered merchant ships were ever built, but recent developments indicate that we may see more ...

At its core, this reactor works very differently from traditional nuclear plants. Instead of using solid uranium rods submerged in pressurized water, this design dissolves thorium fuel into molten ...
