While there, he engaged Bryden Wood and together they developed the Front End Factory, a collaborative endeavour to explore how to turn purpose and strategy into the right projects – which paved the way for Design to Value.
Nuclear energy doesn’t create air pollution or release greenhouse gases.The steam created in the energy production process is recycled into the atmosphere and the relatively small amount of fuel that is needed to provide the required energy can be stored safely.
We do need to ensure our long-term solutions for storing spent fuel are fit for purpose, but we will only have the time to worry about that if we tackle the immediate climate crisis.. As such, although nuclear energy itself isn’t technically renewable, we can be confident of the fact that it is a flexible, clean energy source already known to complement renewables well, and which can be used to create a reliable power grid.. 8.Flexible, advanced reactors sit alongside wind and solar in markets with high penetrations of renewables, and can enable similarly high penetrations of variable renewables in future energy systems.Together, renewables plus advanced nuclear (with thermal energy storage) can reduce emissions and improve performance in future electricity grids, lowering overall system cost.. 9.
Current and emerging advanced heat sources (new generation nuclear reactors) can do more than just provide reliable, clean electricity.They can offer added flexibility for power grids, decarbonise heating and industrial processes, and produce low-cost hydrogen and synthetic fuels..
According to the Expert Group on Resource Management of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe, nuclear energy is an ‘indispensable tool’ for achieving the UN’s sustainable development goals (SDGs).
It will have a crucial role in providing affordable energy and climate change mitigation, as well as eliminating poverty, achieving zero hunger, providing clean water, economic growth and industry innovation.. 10.It’s so inspirational.’.
She is a strong believer in how an office is a physical representation of who companies are publicly and internally, GWS’s delivery of both urban beauty and an industrious artistic community answers her brief one hundred percent.. KHALIFA ABUBAKAR AND SHAUN OBINNA IHEJETOH, WEST PORT & COMPANY.Architects Khalifa Abubakar, Shaun Obinna Ihejetoh and Colin Cheng became friends whilst studying at Edinburgh College of Arts in 2006.
After honing their craft at a number of renowned practices in the UK and abroad they came together in 2016 to form the RIBA Chartered architectural practice,.West Port & Co. .
