The DEsire project in Poland are our academic partners. They play to decarbonise the Polish power industry through modernisation using Gen III+ and IV nuclear reactors to transform domestic and combined heat and power plants.
Anna Skorek-Osikowska, one of our academic partners at the Silesian University of Technology on the challenges Poland faces to transition away from high coal dependence, and its pathway to achieving net zero.
China is at a critical juncture where clean electricity will soon meet all incremental demand. Coal-to-X addresses tensions arising from the phase-down of the coal-electricity ecosystem.
Repower academic partners from Institut Teknologu Bandung discuss Indonesia's National Energy Policy direction and Road Map to achieve Net Zero by 2060.
Professor Ning Li, Dean of College of Energy, Xiamen University discusses how China is leading the way in their rapid transition to renewables.
This study systematically explores the transitional approach from CPPs to advanced energy systems and conduct an exhaustive comparative analysis focusing on three proposed energy system models: Greenfield, Coal-to-Nuclear (C2N), and Coal-to-Integrated Energy Systems (C2IES)
In this study, two types of SMRs were investigated: high-temperature gas reactors (HTGRs) and pressurized water reactors (PWRs). An analysis of necessary regulatory and legislative changes in South Korea’s nuclear framework is presented, identifying several key regulatory issues for repowering coal with nuclear energy.
The paper optimizes a molten‑salt TES peak‑shaving retrofit for a 600 MW supercritical CFPP by coupling an integrated MSTES model with two energy‑saving devices: a No. 0 high‑pressure heater (HPH) and a front steam cooler (FSC).
The CTC’s first report sets out a practical plan to cut emissions from existing coal power and enable just, country‑driven coal‑to‑clean transitions. It highlights four levers for legacy coal fleets—early retirement, repurposing for flexibility, CCUS retrofits, and co‑firing low‑emissions fuels.
South Korea has reached new records for electricity demand, and also has energy-intensive industries. Stable electrical power supply is essential to Korea's industrial competitiveness, so can SMRs be the replacement for coal power?
Lukasz Bartela, leader of the DEsire project on how coal-to-nuclear can be part of the Just Transformation of coal dependent regions of Poland.
Hyme's versatile, high performance thermal storage plants, can decarbonise energy intensive industries and retrofit CHP utility plants.
