million to a project led by General Atomics for the engineering, construction and operation of a rare earth separation and processing demonstration plant to be located in Wyoming. These high-strength permanent magnets are a key component in the manufacture of electric vehicles, solar panels and wind turbines, among other technology uses.

Critical materials are used in many products important to the US economy and energy technologies, such as rare-earth elements used to manufacture high-strength magnets for offshore wind-turbine generators and lithium and cobalt in lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles.

Through Bob’s efforts, the Red Lake Nation was designated as the first TEDO by the US Department of the Interior. With the designation, Tribes have a greater say in the way electricity is delivered and managed. This has been particularly important given Wyoming’s overall hesitance toward EV charging infrastructure deployment.

Kansas, Missouri, Pennsylvania and Wyoming led the rest of the country in new stream-reach hydropower potential. Hydropower also provides reliable baseload power day and night, providing greater flexibility and diversity to the electric grid and allowing utilities to integrate intermittent renewable sources such as wind and solar power.

Enefit’s modular design allows easy maintenance, process optimization and streamlined adaptability to the individual characteristics of different oil shale deposits. The efficiency of the technology comes from its 100% use of the mined oil shale. There are also significant reserves in Jordan, Morocco, Sweden, Syria and Turkey.

When it comes online in 2026, Linglong One will have a capacity of 125 megawatts of electricity (MWe)—equivalent to around 40 onshore wind turbines. Why, after all, would an ambitious nuclear reactor designer want to go small? Next to a large reactor (often in excess of 1,000 MWe), 125 MWe may seem insignificant.

Perhaps most importantly, though, they’re essential components of the permanent magnets used in the motors of most electric vehicles and many appliances, and also in the generators in most wind turbines. Wind turbines, too. access to rare earths. It followed an earlier, $10 million award to MP Materials, in November 2020.
