CHINA BUILDING U.S.-PIONEERED HIGH-TEMP REACTORS <\/h1>\n\n

At the end of this year, China will begin commercializing the first two high-temperature, gas-cooled nuclear reactors in more than three decades.
\n
\nThe U.S. first developed the idea 70 years ago and even commercialized two plants in the \u201860s before they were shut down. China\u2019s reactors will be bigger – 250 MW- and have signaled they will attempt even larger reactors capable of maxing out at 600 MW.
\n
\nThese zero-carbon reactors are not only among the safest but are hot enough to be useful in steel manufacturing and petrochemical refining. Saudi Arabia (and likely other thirsty and wealthy Middle Eastern countries) is exploring using these reactors as well to desalinate water and has signed an MOU with China.
\n
\nThese high-temperature reactors would likely not have been possible without the U.S. But we\u2019re not longer leading their advancement. <\/span>

CONGRESSIONAL ARPA-E LEADERS TOUT REAUTHORIZATION <\/h1>\n\n

Leaders of a bipartisan House bill – including 2016 ClearPath endorsements Ryan Costello and Mia Love – sent a Dear Colleague letter outlining their plan to reauthorize the Department of Energy\u2019s popular ARPA-E advanced energy R&D agency through 2022. ClearPath is among the many supporters of the bill, which also include the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Nuclear Energy Institute, Carbon Utilization Research Center, Bipartisan Policy Center, Third Way and the American Council for Capital Formation. <\/span><\/p>\n\n
