Nuclear energy, both in operation and under construction, seemingly divides our globe into two parts. This division may pose a strategic question for the countries in the south hemisphere regarding their future development and energy sovereignty. PTEM considers this question as a starting point for determining the balance of power and the objectives of the future.

Calpine, U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) enter cost share agreement for Houston carbon capture demonstration AS reported in POWER Engineering on July 8, 2024, Calpine announced that it has executed a cost share agreement with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED) for a full-scale carbon capture demonstration project at its Baytown Energy Center near Houston. The Baytown Decarbonization Project is designed to capture 95% of CO2 emissions from two of the three turbines at the company’s Baytown Energy Facility, enabling the facility to produce electricity as well as steam for collocated industrial use. Calpine will now begin the first phase of the DOE cooperative agreement, with other phases to follow upon successful completion of phase one and finalization of plans for subsequent phases. “We are pleased to have reached another milestone in the development of our Baytown Decarbonization Project. This initial Phase 1 commitment by the DOE will support the engineering and design of the project, further our community engagement, and advance project planning,” said Caleb Stephenson, Calpine’s Executive Vice President of Commercial Operations. More innovation and leadership from Electric Power Supply Association members who are working to develop and commercialize innovative solutions to today's energy challenges! #leadership #emissions #power #energy #CCS #innovation

Great article I cut and paste the one section near the start of it below as this is what will continue to drive new Data centers, tech and other industries to the state as I have been saying. The article backs it all up “driven by the EASE of building energy projects! Without enough energy, recent forecasts, and add slow connection times on the records already occurring in the East, northern Virginia is a microcosm of this, we will see more and more selecting Texas for large energy use projects. From the article: But in Texas, as with other energy resources that have found a foothold here, the rapid growth of battery storage is driven by the ease of building energy projects and making money in the state’s business-friendly environment.

Green DC agenda delays CP2 LNG permits as liberals seek votes from the radical progressive wing of party. U.S regulators asked LNG exporter Venture Global LNG to update its emissions analysis for its proposed Calcasieu Pass 2 LNG export project in Louisiana, according to a letter sent on Wednesday. Venture Global is seeking permission from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to double the capacity of its Calcasieu Pass liquefaction plant with a second phase that would produce 20 million tons of LNG per year. The Arlington, Virginia-based company has given other regulators different emissions information on its CP1 project, FERC said, asking for updated emissions data following a complaint from environmental groups. Last month, the Sierra Club told FERC that Venture Global LNG applied to Louisiana's Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ) for a modification of its emissions permit to reflect higher levels of atmospheric discharge. The expected increased emissions stemmed from proposed operational changes to that facility’s five combined-cycle combustion turbines, FERC said in its letter. In response, Venture Global said that at the time it applied to FERC for approval to construct the CP2 plant, its application with the LDEQ was pending, and it has not received a greenlight. Venture Global said the application reflected proposed operational changes involving increased hours of operation of the duct burners, but said emissions cumulatively would remain within air quality standards. https://lnkd.in/dj44bR5P

#FactFriday The job of a structural engineer doesn't stop when a project is completed. Structural engineers are needed throughout the lifespan of a building. Forensic engineers can provide guidance on the best way to safely restore a failing structure by identifying weak spots. Structural analysis is vital for aging or damaged buildings of any size as beams, trusses, roofs, and other elements degrade. Failing to perform a proper inspection can create unnecessary risks as structures age and deteriorate, often resulting in costly repairs and occasionally in catastrophic disasters. #BuildingIntegrity #RiskPrevention #BuildingInspections #StructuralEngineering #KeystoneEngineering #KeystoneEngineeringPE

There are may laws in place of professional engineers receiving kickbacks that state said illegal. They may have have skills and getting funding of state and federal money but they’re also embezzling a portion of them into their pockets running and LLC after firm WSP gets billions of dollars. The senior project managers are subbing out hundreds of thousands of dollars to smaller firms that would not win the work. so they’re providing kickbacks to the senior managers at WSP. I have bank statements to prove it the originals. I have Fidelity statements to prove it the originals. I reported and nothing’s been done. So now I made a report to the professional engineering licensing board. I’m sure it’s still going on. You’re trying to hide it another way if not through Fidelity and Bank of America through crypto funds or other way of paying off these project managers, royalties, and kickbacks have been going on for a long time, but now that they’re affecting me personally I’m going to put a stop to it. I’m tired of paying taxes for everything and including property taxes. This has been going on for the last three years and I’ve been still pushed to sign tax papers that I can strictly see numbers incorrect. They put these laws in place. Maybe the professional engineering licensing port will do something about it.

Important Earthquake Fault Discovery USGS refers to its ongoing effort to publish in 2025 the updated National Hazard Model (NSH) for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands as 2025 PRVI NSM. This work was expected to begin a few years ago, but the need to address other priorities pushed the official start date to 2023. This work is extremely important because the seismic design parameters in the current and the previous PR Building Code were based on the 2003 USGS Hazard Model for PR. The 2020 earthquake swarm and the location of the epicenters demonstrated the urgent need to investigate and quantify the seismicity of the south and southwest areas of PR. The press release today from the PR Strong Motion Program and UPRM’s Geology Department includes two important photos for the trench opened by USGS with assistance from UPRM. The trench excavated on April 15 in Salinas found conclusive evidence for the fault labeled GSPRFZ in the fault maps for PR. Two different earthquake events are certain to have occurred based on the vertical soil profile visible in the trench walls. Samples of materials from the trench walls will be studied in order to determine when these earthquakes occurred. Additional investigations are being carried out in Lajas, Añasco, Santa Isabel, as well as other locations in Salinas. Since December 2021, notice has been given in the technical literature and in different technical seminars that analytical studies carried out with the ground motion records from 2020 demonstrate that the PR code parameters for seismic design in the south and southwest are as much as 100% smaller than they have to be. FEMA has ignored this information. The governor and his advisors, COR3, as well as infrastructure agency heads who are actively contracting design and carrying out construction are unconcerned. Why is this acceptable? The expected adoption of the 2024 family of ICC codes will not include a change in these parameters unless action is taken now, quickly, with an Executive Order, replacing the old values with the new ones, even if it finally occurs more than two years late.

FINALLY something agreed upon by the senate that actually makes sense for our energy security and reliability. “This is another successful bipartisan effort to boost the deployment of zero-emission nuclear power and shore up America’s longstanding global leadership in nuclear energy. The ADVANCE Act will strengthen our nuclear workforce, assist in the deployment of new advanced reactors by lowering barriers in the regulatory process, and facilitate the reuse of Brownfield sites to aid in the coal-to-nuclear transition. Advancing the development of the next generation of nuclear reactors is a win for the planet, and passage of this bill marks the next step in bringing new, safe reactors online,” said Senator Whitehouse, who has led three successful bipartisan efforts to advance modern nuclear energy technology. The ADVANCE Act will: Facilitate American Nuclear Energy Leadership by: - Empowering the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to lead in international forums to develop regulations for advanced nuclear reactors. - Directing the Department of Energy to improve its process for approving the export of American technology to international markets, while maintaining strong standards for nuclear non-proliferation. Support Development and Deployment of New Nuclear Energy Technologies by: - Reducing regulatory costs for companies seeking to license advanced nuclear reactor technologies. - Creating a prize to incentivize the successful deployment of next-generation reactor technologies. -Requiring the NRC to develop a pathway to enable the timely licensing of microreactors and nuclear facilities at brownfield and retired fossil-fuel energy generation sites. Strengthen America’s Nuclear Energy Fuel Cycle and Supply Chain Infrastructure by: -Directing the NRC to enhance its ability to qualify and license accident-tolerant fuels and advanced nuclear fuels that can increase safety and economic competitiveness for existing reactors and the next generation of advanced reactors. - Tasking the NRC to evaluate advanced manufacturing techniques to build nuclear reactors better, faster, cheaper and smarter. Improve Commission Efficiency by: - Providing flexibility for the NRC to better manage and invest its resources in activities that support NRC’s modernization efforts and address staffing issues. - Providing the NRC Chair the tools to hire and retain exceptionally well-qualified individuals to successfully and safely review and process applications for advanced nuclear reactor licenses.

Although I often don’t agree with Kyle Bass, I strongly connect with his words on inflation (from minute 5). Although we appear to have successfully passed the Covid Crisis, we have traded it for significant inflation, which translates to increased inequality and conflict not just within countries, but also between countries. Most Americans will likely focus on the inequalities between different groups within U.S. society, I think the inequalities are getting more extreme between the 3rd world (or sometimes referred to global south) and the top economies of the world. We appear to be exporting a less productive and more inflationary dollar around the world and breaking the back of many weak countries just trying to survive. We want the benefits of the world’s reserve currency (stronger and stable currency, i.e. ability to extract resources from other countries) without the downside (accountability and financial restraint, i.e. allowing for more fair competition between the world’s economies). https://lnkd.in/gDgxF8Qk
