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.

Israel Resumes Work on Gaza Power Plant
LCG, Aug. 20, 2001--An unnamed senior official said that Israel is to allow work on the Nuseirat power station in the northern Gaza Strip to resume this week, the Jerusalem Post reported this morning.Moshe Karif, spokesman for the Coordinator of Government Activities in Judea, Samaria and theGaza Strip, said Israel would allow turbines arriving at Ashdod port to be transferred to the Gaza power station but did not give details on the scope of the work to be allowed at the plant.The generating station is being built in the Erez industrial zone with the help of U.S. and Belgian firms, but work had been halted because of unrest in the area, the unnamed official said. "It's important because it supplies jobs for the Palestinians, and every (one) working is one less pair of hands for Hamas," he said anonymously.The construction workers are Palestinians and Israeli officials would prefer their hands held construction tools rather than Klashnikov AK-47 rifles. Defense officials say that the Erez is a success and that the number of workers there is growing despite the unrest. Today, some 4,600 Palestinians are employed in the zone. That is roughly equivalent to a regiment of infantry.The Jerusalem Post did not say how large the power plant is, but did say that its output will meet most of the coastal strip's power needs. Israel is currently providing Gaza with electricity.
