Wiernicki: Shipping can’t get to net zero by 2050 without nuclear

“New nuclear technology is a global decarbonization solution and a commercial shipping disruptor. There is no net zero by 2050 without nuclear.” That was the view from ABS chairman and CEO Christopher J. Wiernicki, speaking at a Houston event organized by Core Power.

“New nuclear is a transformational technology. It disrupts the commercial model, the economics of shipping, as well as the operation of vessels and of course their design,” said Wiernicki. “Not only does it offer zero carbon...

LR and CORE POWER to study next-gen nuclear container ship rules

Lloyd’s Register (LR) and CORE POWER have initiated a joint regulatory assessment study to explore the safety and regulatory requirements for a next-generation nuclear-powered feeder container ship to operate in a European port.

This study focused on the feasibility and necessary frameworks for utilizing a fourth-generation reactor known for its high inherent safety. Following initial planning efforts, it was formalized through a joint development project agreement with A.P. Moller-Maersk.

“The...

Maersk joins nuclear powered containership study

Maersk is keeping all its green propulsion open, including green methanol, bio-LNG and, maybe at some future date, nuclear. It has signed a joint develop project agreement that sees it join Lloyd’s Register (LR) and nuclear marine propulsion specialist Core Power in launching a joint regulatory assessment study. The study will conduct research on the regulatory feasibility and frameworks that would need to be established for a nuclear powered containership using a fourth-generation reactor to...
