Terra Praxis’ REPOWER, an innovative modular & scalable architecture, can convert existing fossil fuel plant sites to nuclear energy.
We are halfway through this critical decade and large industrial energy users are figuring out how to meet commitments to decarbonize hundreds of gigawatts of business-critical energy services – starting in the 2030 timeframe. Many are concluding that nuclear energy might be the most practical option to substitute for fossil fuels that currently supply the heat and power that drives their business-critical energy services.
The demand for clean energy is huge but cannot be met with specialized, complicated and expensive energy services that take years to license and construct and do not have access to mainstream finance. Innovations in design, manufacturing, licensing, and deployment are needed to enable nuclear energy to meet global demand at the speed, scale, and costs required to achieve global decarbonization and universal access to modern energy services.
Eric Ingersoll, Founding Director and Co-CEO of the nonprofit Terra Praxis, will share a strategy and the progress underway to enable 10 TWe of clean energy to be deployed in 10 years, starting in 2030. He will provide a practical approach for repurposing coal plants - as well as other industrial energy infrastructure - cost-effectively, quickly and at scale. Advances are being made by applying Design for Manufacture & Assembly to nuclear deployment, a proven technique to achieve high quality and cost-effective delivery of complex infrastructure, including ships, planes, and data centers, as well as licensing innovations and a range of digital tools, including AI and quantum computing to modernize, lower costs and speed up rates of deployment of nuclear energy.
