Nuclear SMRs were never really meant to work. For the companies it's a pump-and-dump fraud and for the offtakers it's perpetually-around-the-corner greenwashing so they can build filthy fossil gas for data centres today and tomorrow

Oklo the worst of the lot: far-right climate deniers all 'round
Mini nuclear reactors are already losing their glow
Several studies suggest SMRs will produce higher levels of nuclear waste than traditional plants

If Marjorie Taylor Greene *really* cared about the Epstein victims, she would read the names of the perpetrators on the House floor (where she would have immunity) before she leaves office.

Uninformed “whataboutism” is a major obstacle to renewables.
"Fig. 1 shows that 35 years of cumulative PV module waste (2016–2050) is dwarfed by the waste generated by fossil fuel energy and other common waste streams"

Grid investment is set to rise from about USD 300bn in 2020 to nearly USD 580bn by 2027 as renewables and electrification expand. The US and China dominate spending.

But grids are not the only answer: flexibility, energy efficiency and storage can reduce and defer upgrades.

2025 comes to an end.

It’s been a strong year for deployment and innovation, but a worrying one for energy politics.

Moves like the US pause on offshore wind show how quickly progress can be undermined by polarised debate.

Here’s hoping 2026 brings calmer, more evidence-based energy policymaking.
