The companies highlighted that floating nuclear power plantscan be centrally manufactured and easily transported tooperation sites, combining advanced nuclear technology withshipyard efficiency. As a highly transportable source of nuclearpower, the eVinci microreactor they contend is perfectly suited tofloating applications. The eVinci microreactor Westinghouse saysrequires minimal maintenance and can operate for eight yearsat full power before refueling, allowing for reliable long-termpower generation at almost any location. Under the agreement, Westinghouse and Core Power will advance the design of aFloating Nuclear Power Plant using the eVinci microreactor.https://www.maritime-executive.com/article/westinghouse-and-core-power-partner-for-floating-nuclear-power-plantsTaiwan%u2019s U-Ming Marine is becoming the latest in a growing listof shipowners to adopt wind-assisted propulsion. Bulkers are apopular category for the technology which is now planned for abroad range of vessel sizes.U-Ming plans to add rotors made by the UK%u2019s Anemoi to one ofthe largest bulkers in the world. Under the agreement announcedtoday, November 28, they plan to retrofit four of Anemoi%u2019s rotorsto one of the line%u2019s largest bulk carriers. The illustration showsGrand Pioneer (324,963 dwt) fitted with rotors. The vessel wasbuilt in China in 2020 and is 1,115 feet (340) meters in length andregistered in Singapore. Each of the rotors will stand 115 feet (35meters) off the deck with a diameter of approximately 16 feet (5meters). The installation is to be completed at the end of 2025.Anemoi reports an anticipated 10 to 12 percent fuel savings forthe vessel operating on deep-sea routes between China, Brazil,South Africa, and Australia. The system includes Anemoi%u2019stechnology so that the rotors can be folded down when not inuse. This addresses concerns for air draft and also ensures theydo not interfere with port operations.
