BAC Catalogue - TrilliumSeries™ Adiabatic Cooler.
Gogan points out that it really doesn't matter how cheap something is, if you can't build it in the first place.What we need to do now, she says, is reevaluate the perceived risks of nuclear, against the risks of failing to decarbonise, and adopt advanced heat solutions to help us on our journey.. At Bryden Wood, we believe it’s important to lean into all of the technologies available to us at this critical time.
While it’s possible that thirty years from now we might find other ways to sustainably meet our energy needs without nuclear technologies, to not have these highly beneficial, advanced heat solutions in our toolbox now would be a huge mistake..Replacing coal with clean energy.The Net Zero America Report produced by Princeton University suggests that the low renewables scenario would require the US grid to double or triple in size, which, as a strategy, seems both unrealistic and very high-risk.
However, if we instead repurpose all of the existing thermal sites, repowering the US coal-fired power plants with new nuclear, advanced heat solutions, we could reduce the amount of new transmission bills by an incredible forty percent.. Gogan says this represents a radical de-risking of our net zero transition, and presents a huge opportunity for decarbonisation.The repowering coal strategy will co-locate an advanced heat source next to an existing coal-fired power plant, decommissioning the coal boiler, while the rest of the plant, including the steam turbine, power island and existing transmission, remain in operation.. To support the repowering coal initiative, Bryden Wood is developing a standardised, scalable building system, configuring the design in such a way as to be able to meet any kind of site or plant requirements, while also accommodating a range of different heat sources.
This is being achieved using a highly automated design, and a design for manufacture and assembly (DfMA) approach.
We’ll create algorithmic design tools to assess coal plant viability for boiler replacement, generate initial concepts using a design configurator in just days, and produce detailed design outputs for manufacturing.Even negative ideas and feelings can be broken down into many different strands some of which can be used to find and weave a new perspective.. For me, curiosity is bright, coolly energetic, imaginative, the suspense of judgement until the last moment.
Curiosity is optimistic, believing that through understanding comes the potential for improvement.Without curiosity, humans would simply not have developed and without curiosity now we will remain stuck in our industrial greenhouse..
In my curiosity, I decided I wanted to know the answer to a simple question.Having been involved a little in a project to look at the production of carbon-neutral synthetic aviation fuel and conversations about the replacement of coal-fired power stations with small nuclear energy generation; I wanted to know how many small nuclear plants it would take to replace the totality of aviation fuel.
