Nuclear power on the agenda for maritime with Mikal Boe CEO of Core Power
Manage episode 441709184 series 2808893
Nuclear power as an alternative fuel for maritime is gaining serious momentum as a pathway to zero emissions for the industry.
One of those at the vanguard of trying to commericalise nuclear for shipping has been Mikal Boe, CEO of Core Power, a company he founded in 2018.
It is over three years ago since Mikal last appeared on the Seatrade Maritime Podcast and things have clearly moved on a long way in that time.
“I think the biggest milestone over the last three year has been the insertion of nuclear into the agenda at the IMO. It's not quite there yet, but it is working its way through the system and we believe in 2025, become part of the work stream at the IMO, and similarly at the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna we've now got maritime firmly on the agenda. So that aligns the two big standards, organisations for maritime and nuclear, around this topic of putting this at sea in a safe way,” Mikal tells the podcast.
In a conversation with Marcus Hand, Editor of Seatrade Maritime News, Mikal you will hear about:
- Public perception and regulatory challenges
- The progress on a test reactor project in the US
- Industry partnerships and future developments
- Floating nuclear power and green fuels
- A potential timeline for nuclear-powered ships
