“We made oil and gas great again through the shale revolution. We can make nuclear energy great again through nuclear recycling.” Over a decade ago, America was on the brink of energy decline. We were dependent on foreign oil, vulnerable to geopolitical shocks, and burdened by high energy costs. Read More…
Curio, an innovative leader in advanced nuclear technologies, is pleased to announce an expanded and strengthened partnership with Energy Northwest, a joint operating agency and nuclear energy operator located in eastern Washington, through a new Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). Read More…
As an energy veteran with decades at the Department of Energy, I’ve witnessed the highs and lows of nuclear power in America. Now, with President Trump back in office, there’s an opportunity to not just revisit but truly revolutionize our approach to nuclear energy, particularly by closing the nuclear fuel cycle. Read More…
Curio has been awarded a GAIN Voucher for Q4/FY-‘25 by the Gateway for Accelerated Innovation in Nuclear (GAIN) Office to collaborate with Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) on characterizing the waste streams of its groundbreaking NuCycle technology Read More…
Curio, a leader in nuclear fuel recycling technology, has unveiled transformative findings from a recent ISO-compliant Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) conducted by Boundless Impact Research & Analytics. The July 2024 report, commissioned through the U.S. Department of Energy’s Energywerx program, demonstrates that Curio’s NuCycle process significantly reduces environmental impacts, achieving up to an 87% reduction in greenhouse […]
Russia and China are in full control of the nuclear energy markets as America is nearly 100% dependent on foreign suppliers of nuclear fuel, according to nuclear energy expert Ed McGinnis. Are we in danger of potential rolling brownouts? Watch here…
Curio, a pioneer in nuclear waste recycling solutions, is pleased to announce it has recently established a memorandum of understanding with Sargent & Lundy, a global engineering and design firm with expertise in nuclear energy, to transform nuclear fuel recycling practices. This agreement sets the stage for exploring endeavors focused on the commercial deployment of […]
Nuclear power is an underutilized form of energy production that is safe, reliable, and provides emissions-free electricity. It has potential to help provide much-needed affordable electricity to people all over the world. Unfortunately, it is also deeply misunderstood, and scare tactics and myths are prevalent. In this latest edition of the Center for Energy, Climate, […]
A growing number of experts are convinced that the transition to net zero carbon needs to involve greater use of nuclear power. But one of the problems with nuclear is what to do with the additional nuclear waste. Ed McGinnis, who heads startup CURIO™, has called the need to find acceptable solutions to nuclear waste […]
Thorium energy experts at the Thorium Energy Alliance Conference told The Epoch Times what they believe has limited the use of the mildly radioactive element, long touted as a potential alternative or complement to plutonium and enriched uranium in nuclear reactors. Unlike uranium-235, the isotope in enriched uranium that sustains a nuclear chain reaction, thorium […]
Nuclear power can potentially help reduce the emissions associated with power generation. However, there are well known issues with nuclear – primarily its cost, the time to develop a nuclear power plant, and the highly radioactive waste it generates.CURIO™ is a hugely ambitious company working to tackle two of these three problems.I invited Ed McGinnis, […]
Ed McGinnis knows a lot about the nuclear waste problem in the United States. He worked in U.S. Department of Energy from 1991 to 2021 and dealt directly with the U.S. government’s failed effort to build a nuclear waste repository in Yucca Mountain, Nevada. “I certainly have the tire tracks on my back” from trying […]
