Three American nuclear power stations are quietly reshaping what the clean hydrogen economy looks like in practice. Backed by the U.S. Department of Energy, demonstration projects at Nine Mile Point in New York, Davis-Besse in Ohio, and Prairie Island in Minnesota are proving that existing reactors can do far more than generate baseload electricity. They can become round-the-clock hydrogen factories, and that shift carries enormous implications for industry, transportation, a
Green hydrogen has long been described as the fuel of the future, perpetually promising but persistently expensive. A research team at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology may have just changed that equation in a fundamental way. By applying a concept borrowed from metallurgy called high-entropy design to the oxygen electrode of a protonic ceramic electrochemical cell, the team achieved a roughly threefold increase in hydrogen production efficiency. It is th
