DOE awards $153M Paducah services contract to North Wind Dynamics
The Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management announced it has awarded a contract worth nearly $153 million to North Wind Dynamics for infrastructure support services at the DOE’s Paducah Site in Kentucky. According to DOE-EM, the company, a small business based in Idaho Falls, Idaho, was chosen based on “key personnel, organization, and management approach, past performance, and value to taxpayers.”
Plenary Session
Monday, June 8, 2020|10:00AM–12:30PM EDT
10:00–11:30AM EDT
11:30AM–12:30PM EDT
This roundtable discussion will feature representatives from utilities awarded funding through DOE’s Light Water Reactor Sustainability Program to demonstrate hydrogen production at existing LWR plants in Ohio, Arizona, and Minnesota. The speakers will provide their perspectives on the first-of-a-kind projects that represent a significant opportunity to improve the long-term economic competitiveness of the current LWR fleet by providing experience and insights on the production of clean hydrogen in addition to electricity at operating nuclear power plants.
