Nuclear power has long been a reliable energy source, supplying nearly 20% of electricity in the United States. While it does ...

Researchers may have found a way to create a nuclear waste battery that could theoretically run for decades without needing to recharge.

Scientists are conducting experiments to generate clean energy through fusion, the same sub-atomic reaction that powers our Sun, with the aim of constructing plants that produce more energy than they ...

The team tested the battery prototype with cesium-137 and cobalt-60, common radioactive byproducts of nuclear reactors. Using ...

Remote tech specialists achieve industry first, operating a robot off-site at Sellafield, enhancing safety and nuclear ...

Nuclear fusion has been heralded as the “holy grail of clean energy” for its ability to produce energy without requiring any fossil fuels, or leaving behind hazardous waste. In order to ...

Does Fusion produce radioactive nuclear waste the same way fission does? Nuclear fission power plants have the disadvantage of generating unstable nuclei; some of these are radioactive for millions of ...

creating potentially dangerous radioactive waste that must be stored. Nuclear fusion creates energy by bringing atoms together, instead of splitting them, and produces less long-lasting waste ...

Scientists have developed an innovative battery that converts energy from radioactive waste into electricity, transforming a hazardous by-product of nuclear power generation into a potential ...
