Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), the operator of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant (NPP), which experienced the worst nuclear disaster since Chernobyl back in 2011, has transferred the first portion of fuel from one of the damaged reactor's fuel storage pools to a nearby facility

Moscow and Washington have in principle agreed on possible testing of Russian-made accident-tolerant fuel (ATF) at a US nuclear power plant (NPP), Vice-President for Research and Development of Russian State Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom's TVEL Fuel Company Alexander Ugryumov said on Monday

Japanese imports of liquefied natural gas (LNG) are expected to drop up to 10 percent this year as the nation continues to restart 35 available nuclear reactors, all of which were shut down following a 2011 earthquake that caused a meltdown of reactor cores at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, according to a report by the Energy Information Administration (EIA) on Monday

The High-Technology Research Institute of Inorganic Materials named after Academician A.A. Bochvar, which is a part of the TVEL Fuel Company of Russia's nuclear corporation Rosatom, is working on a new type of the so-called accident-tolerant fuel, whose use is supposed to enhance the safety of nuclear power plants (NPPs), the general director of the institute told Sputnik on Thursday
