As per a press release by Core Power, the floating nuclear power plant will provide an estimated 175 GWh of clean electricity per year.
Glosten has been entrusted with the duty of developing the operational concept and designing the floating facility for the nuclear power plant.
The firm will also establish a regulatory path for the barge, navigate site location approvals, and identify a potential supply chain network for the FNPP’s fabrication, assembly, integration, transportation, and installation.
“The marine industry has experienced a massive push to decarbonize, and Core Power’s FNPP offers an effective and practical means to meet that demand,” said Morgan Fanberg, CEO of Glosten.
“Glosten’s job is to turn CORE POWER’s vision into a design that demonstrates the practicality of providing reliable, zero-emissions nuclear power to port facilities and has a defined path to regulatory approval,” he added.
