US Company Gets Approval To Build The World's First Fusion Power Plant In Washington
Authored by Ameya Paleja via Interesting Engineering,
US-based fusion energy company Helion has received the regulatory clearances to build the world's first fusion energy power plant. The company has received a Radioactive Materials License (RML) and a Radioactive Air Emissions License (RAEL) from the Washington Department of Health (DOH), clearing the way to begin construction of the generator building at the power plant site.

As the world looks for newer ways to meet it energy demands without emitting carbon, fusion energy seems to be the most likely option. Using the chemical reaction that occurs on the Sun, fusion energy can potentially generate large amounts of energy from simpler atoms like hydrogen and its isotopes.
Unlike its counterpart, nuclear fission, fusion energy does not produce large amounts of radioacti...

Power Transformer Lead Times Hit Record Highs As US Grid Equipment Shortage Deepens
By West Garrett of Industrial Sage
Summary:
Power transformer lead times now average 128 weeks — nearly 2.5 years — with generator step-up transformers averaging 144 weeks
Prices for power transformers have risen 77% since 2019, driven by surging demand and constrained raw material supply
Cleveland-Cliffs is the only domestic producer of grain-oriented electrical steel, the specialized material transformers require
Demand for generator step-up transformers has grown 274% since 2019, outpacing any increase in manufacturing capacity
For industrial developers, equipment availability has replaced capital and permitting as the primary constraint on project timelines
Roughly 80% of large power transformers used in the U.S. are imported, exposing critical infrastructure to global supply chain pressures
Power transformer lead times have reached levels that are now dictating the pace of industrial expansion acr...
