An Interview with Bogi Højgaard – CEO, Repower Initiative Bogi Højgaard is the CEO and board member of Repower Initiative. We caught up with Bogi last year at the summit in Poland, where he shared his views on repowering, including the vital grid stabilisation aspect it provides for systems heavily based on variable renewables. Tell us about your previous role before Repower Initiative? In my previous role as Associate Director at the CATA Carbon Trust, we worked on several pieces of work on coal retirement across Southeast Asia and particularly…Results: 61 - 72 of 133 posts

Matching Analysis of Technical Parameters and Safety Standards for Nuclear Replacement of Coal-Fired Units – (ENERGIES)
This 2024 review by researchers from Tsinghua University and the Harbin Institute of Technology examines in detail whether nuclear reactors could directly replace the boilers in existing coal power plants — a concept central to the emerging “coal-to-nuclear” (C2N) pathway.

Study on Conventional Island Retrofit Strategies for Converting Coal-Fired Power Plants to Nuclear Power Stations in China – (energies)
Retrofitting coal-fired power plants with nuclear reactors presents a viable pathway for reducing carbon emissions in China's power industry. This study recommends using High-Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactors (HTGR) due to their compatibility with existing coal plant infrastructure.

The Impact of Coal to Nuclear on Regional Energy System – (ENERGY)
This study examines the effects of converting coal-fired power plants to nuclear (C2N) on Guangdong Province's energy system. Through three hypothetical scenarios, it finds that increased nuclear capacity reduces fuel consumption, costs, and carbon emissions, potentially achieving near energy self-sufficiency by 2060.
