LCG, November 19, 2025--Oklo Inc. and Siemens Energy announced today that the parties have signed a binding contract for the design and delivery of the power conversion system for Oklo’s Aurora-INL (Idaho National Laboratory) nuclear small modular reactor (SMR). The agreement authorizes Siemens Energy to begin engineering and design work to expedite procurement of long-lead components and to initiate the manufacturing process for the power conversion system. Oklo’s expertise in advanced fission technology will be combined with Siemens Energy’s extensive industry experience with steam turbine and generator systems, with the ultimate goal of generating carbon-free, reliable electricity.

LCG, November 19, 2025--NERC yesterday released its 2025–2026 Winter Reliability Assessment (WRA), which concludes "much of North America is again at an elevated risk of having insufficient energy supplies to meet demand in extreme operating conditions." The WRA does state that resources are adequate for normal winter peak demand, but extended, wide-area cold snaps will be challenging.

Koreas to Survey Power Sector on Entire Peninsula
LCG, Feb. 9, 2001North and South Korea agreed yesterday on a joint survey of the electric power systems covering the entire Korean peninsula, offering additional evidence of growing rapprochement between the two nations.North Korea, on the second day of three-day talks held in its capital city of Pyongyang, had asked South Korea to begin sending electricity north as soon as possible. The North Koreans had earlier asked to receive 500 megawatts of power from the south.Electricity shortages plague North Korea, where many homes and business are reported to be without power in the middle of the winter. Winters in North Korea are very cold, with temperatures as low as minus 30F not uncommon.South Korean official say it would take four years to build the necessary transmission facilities and cost more than $600 million. The time and money could be better spent, they say, repairing generating facilities in the north.South Korea expects the survey to show that North Korea has 7,300 megawatt of installed generation, but is capable of producing only 2,000 megawatts because of maintenance problems, obsolescence and fuel shortages.South Korea said there was a possibility that it could ship surplus coal to North Korean plants.
