As renewable forms of power like wind and solar continue to gain prominence, there will be a need for creative solutions when it comes to storing energy from sources that are intermittent by nature.

Researchers have proposed a method for 99Mo production via electron accelerator irradiation of a natural-uranium-bearing ...

Alongside solar and wind power, clean energy companies are also looking into using salt to generate electricity — molten salt, to be precise. SolarReserve is just one of several companies trying to ...

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, ...

Danish nuclear technology company Copenhagen Atomics has completed two years of continuous operation of a molten salt pump and test loop at its facilities in Copenhagen. The system has been running ...

Experts from 17 countries laid the foundations last week for enhanced international cooperation on a technology that promises to deliver nuclear power with a lower risk of severe accidents, helping to ...

Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) are centralizing their nuclear materials research within ...

A small startup based in Emeryville, California, will build a pilot-scale energy storage system that could provide a cheaper, more practical way of storing large amounts of electricity and help enable ...

A research group shows, using computer simulations, that ions do not always behave as expected. In their research on molten salts, they were able to see that, in some cases, the ions in the salt ...
