NextChem Tech to develop new 'e-factory'

Additionally, Tecnimont (Integrated E&C Solutions BU) will provide high-level consultancy services for Newcleo’s plan for the implementation of an innovative power plant based on newcleo’s LFR-AS-200 technology, a small modular lead-cooled fast reactor fuelled with MOX fuel thanks to Tecnimont’s modularisation approach to optimise construction and planning methodology, reducing time and costs.

This approach will enable the production of electrolytic hydrogen and sustainable chemicals including carbon-neutral ammonia, methanol, e-fuels and derivatives, in line with the EU’s recentdecision to include innovative Gen-IV nuclear technology, like the Newcleo one, within the perimeter of EU Taxonomy of environmentally sustainable economic activities.

Alessandro Bernini, MAIRE CEO, commented: “With this agreement, MAIRE confirms its commitment to foster decarbonisation and green chemistry through a wide range of technological solutions. By creating carbon-neutral chemistry models based on safe, reliable and competitive energy supply, we will accelerate the industrialisation of the energy transition.”
