On Monday, TerraPower and the UAE’s state-owned nuclear company Emirates Nuclear Energy Corporation (ENEC) signed a nonbinding memorandum of understanding to collaborate on developing new nuclear power plants that would combat climate change. The preliminary deal comes as nuclear power increasingly takes center stage at the United Nations’s COP28 conference in Dubai, which started last week.
