THE UK’s National Nuclear Laboratory (NNL) has selected Jacobs to help develop novel high-temperature gas-cooled reactor (HGTR) technology that could support the decarbonisation of heavy industry such as steel and cement. HGTRs are advanced modular reactor (AMR) technology that offer the ability to supply heating at around 1,000°C without the risk of reactor meltdown. The technology is being developed across the globe, with China announcing in 2022 that it had connected the world’s first HGTR to the grid, which entered … read more »
