Role of LNG – Climate Change & Energy Transition
Natural gas has a significant role to play as an essential fuel to generate electricity and help us transition to a low emissions world. Visit Webpage
What is Liquified Natural Gas (LNG)?
Liquefied natural gas, or LNG, is the liquid form of natural gas. It is a clear, colourless, odourless, clean burning fuel. It is taken out of the ground as natural gas, and becomes a liquid when it is cooled to -162 degrees Celsius. The cooling process reduces the volume of natural gas by more
Electric Vehicle Chargers: The Basics
Going all-in with electric vehicles (EVs) is a key part of transitioning Canadian transportation to a net-zero emissions future. It’s one reason why the Government of Canada has set an ambitious federal target that by 2040, 100% of light-duty vehicle sales will be zero-emission vehicles. As auto manufacturers produce more EVs and new models
Strong public support for nuclear waste recycling in New Brunswick
A new study commissioned by Moltex Energy and conducted by Narrative Research shows strong public support for nuclear waste recycling in New Brunswick, Canada. “The results show the public’s interest in reducing the nuclear waste in New Brunswick and their preference to use this waste to generate more clean energy,” said Rory O’Sullivan, Chief Executive Officer, North America,

Atlantic Canada’s Wind Projects
The Energiewende (German for energy transition) is a concept that describes the transition to a low carbon, sustainable, reliable, and affordable energy supply. In the not too distant future our energy systems will rely on renewable energy, energy efficiency, and energy demand management. Dirty coal and oil fired generation will be retired. Visit Webpage
Bioenergy Systems
Bioenergy is a renewable energy resource derived from living organisms and/or their byproducts. It currently accounts for approximately 6% of Canada’s total energy supply. Bioenergy is an extensive sustainable energy resource that can supply energy to Canada while emitting low CO2 and reducing waste. Scientists and engineers at CanmetENERGY are at the forefront of innovative technology
Wind Energy Technology
Electricity from wind energy is one of the fastest growing methods of electrical generation in the world. Kinetic energy from moving air is converted into electricity by wind turbines that are mounted in locations where there are favourable weather patterns. Wind turbines may be employed individually, but are often installed in groups to form
Your lifetime used fuel would fit in a soda can! Want proof?
A CANDU 6 reactor typically has 380 fuel channels. Each channel has 12 fuel bundles which means at any given time, a reactor has approximately 4,560 fuel bundles. This system produces ~2,000 MW of thermal power (heat), which is turned into ~700 MW of electricity . Each week, approximately 60 new fuel bundles are
