NuScale Power Corporation is leading innovative research programs in Corvallis, Oregon, focusing on an integrated energy system to combat water scarcity and enable energy-efficient hydrogen production. By coupling a NuScale Power Module™ with a reverse osmosis desalination system, clean water production of 150 million gallons per day without CO2 emissions is achievable. Additionally, surplus power can provide electricity for 400,000 homes. The challenge of brine production from desalination is addressed by utilizing it as industrial feedstock for hydrogen production. Teaming up with the U.S. Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, NuScale's hydro-thermal chemical decomposition approach offers a carbon-free and energy-efficient method for hydrogen production. Dr. José Reyes emphasizes the significance of these solutions in tackling global water scarcity, brine waste, and clean hydrogen production, presenting a promising future for sustainable and carbon-free energy.
