SGE Proposes Development of 4.2 GW SMR Fleet in UK

Poland-based small modular reactor development platform SGE has filed an application under the UK's advanced nuclear framework for the development of a 4.2 gigawatt SMR fleet in Great Britain, it said on Thursday.The proposed fleet's generation would meet 11% of UK power demand, equivalent to about eight million homes, for at least 60 years, the company said in a statement."SGE is presenting a privately financed, commercially-led investment, supported by strong delivery partners. SGE plans to deploy under a Contract for Difference framework with National Wealth Fund engagement, meaning there will be no charges to consumers prior to operations," the statement said.As part of its plans, the company intends to build 14 GE Vernova Hitachi BWRX-300 SMRs at three different multi-unit sites in the UK, with the first site expected to host six BWRX-300 units and the other two sites expected to follow in quick succession.The company projects the entry of the project in the advanced nuclear pipeline in November this year and expects to complete site selection and government support scheme negotiations in H1 2027.Within a year of that, it expects to begin work on major investment, site preparation and licensing. SGE is targeting commercial operation of the first unit for 2034.The BWRX-300 reactor has been developed by GE Vernova Hitachi Nuclear Energy, a nuclear technology joint venture between GE Vernova (GEV) and Japan's Hitachi.The BWRX-300, which derives from technology used in 67 reactors, is under licensed construction in Canada and on track to become the first SMR to operate in the OECD.It also completed the second step of the UK's Generic Design Assessment in December last year.SGE has set up SGE SMR UK as its UK-based project company to support the programme.

Chevron's Microsoft Power Deal Highlights 'Underappreciated' Fuel Cost Economics, UBS Securities Says

Chevron's (CVX) partnership with Microsoft (MSFT) to build a co-located power facility for a data center highlights fuel cost economics as a "key and underappreciated" aspect of its power solutions business, UBS Securities said in a note Monday.Chevron subsidiary Energy Forge One finalized the agreement to develop a 2.67-gigawatt natural gas-fired power plant to supply dedicated electricity to a Microsoft-operated data center under a 20-year power purchase agreement. Chevron will combine cycle gas turbines from GE Vernova (GEV) and simple cycle gas turbines from Caterpillar (CAT) to engineer the best system for its clients, the brokerage noted.By placing power generation near its upstream operations, Chevron is creating demand for associated gas that would otherwise be flared, curtailed, or sold cheaply, UBS analysts said. The company is improving its upstream realizations as well as boosting integration across its value chain, they added.The project's phased and modular approach allows incremental expansion over time, the brokerage said, adding that Microsoft is also seen increasing the initial order as its power needs are more than the capacity of the project.UBS Securities has a buy rating on Chevron's stock, with a price target of $220.Shares of Chevron were up 0.6% in Tuesday trading.Price: $176.11, Change: $+1.05, Percent Change: +0.60%

Chevron Strikes 20-Year Power Deal to Provide Electricity to Microsoft Data Center in West Texas

Chevron (CVX) has agreed to build a power plant in West Texas to supply electricity to a data center operated by technology giant Microsoft (MSFT), as part of a 20-year power purchase deal.Chevron's subsidiary, Energy Forge One, entered into the agreement with Microsoft for the development of the project, known as Kilby, the oil giant said Monday. The companies didn't disclose the financial terms of the deal.The facility is expected to deliver about 2.67 gigawatts of capacity, with a majority of the generation to come from large turbines and related electrical infrastructure from GE Vernova (GEV), according to Chevron. Caterpillar (CAT) unit Solar Turbines will provide additional capacity, the company said.Chevron's shares dipped 0.2% in Monday trade, while Microsoft edged down 0.9%."Chevron is uniquely positioned to deliver power to customers with certainty, speed and at a competitive cost, leveraging Permian natural gas and our proven execution capabilities," said Jeff Gustavson, Chevron's president of new energies. "This project links Chevron's traditional strengths to emerging demand, creating differentiated value for our shareholders and the communities where we operate."Chevron said it's aiming for a final investment decision by the end of the year, with first power delivery expected in 2028. The project is anticipated to deliver mid-teen returns and generate diversified cash flow independent of oil and gas price cycles."The rapid growth we're experiencing in AI and cloud, driven by customer demand, requires energy infrastructure that can scale quickly and reliably," according to Noelle Walsh, Microsoft's president of cloud operations and innovation. "Our agreement with Chevron helps ensure we'll have dedicated, large-scale power to support the evolution and reliability of advanced compute."The project is estimated to generate more than $10 billion in state and local tax revenue, create nearly 2,000 jobs and boost wider economic growth, according to Chevron.Earlier this month, Amazon.com (AMZN) agreed to a multibillion-dollar deal with specialty glass maker Corning (GLW) to secure optical fiber, cable, and connectivity components for its US data center infrastructure.Price: $173.33, Change: $-0.30, Percent Change: -0.17%

Sweden's Vattenfall Picks Rolls-Royce SMR for Nuclear Power Project

Swedish utility Vattenfall said on Monday that it was selecting UK-based Rolls-Royce small modular reactors over its US rival, GE Vernova (GEV), to supply small modular reactors for its nuclear power project on the Varo Peninsula.According to the company's press release, Rolls-Royce was selected from over 70 different options, in a process that took over four years, in what is set to be the country's first turn towards nuclear energy in over four decades, in its bid to decarbonize and strengthen economic competitiveness.Vattenfall noted that Rolls-Royce SMR offers an efficient and industrialized concept, with a proven pressurized water reactor technology. As the construction takes place in an industrialized and controlled environment, it reduces delays."We are very pleased to announce that Rolls-Royce SMR has been selected by Videberg Kraft," said Martin Darelius, the acting head of new nuclear at Vattenfall, who also added that the company offers "the strongest conditions for delivering a successful project."The British government too had lobbied in favor of the multi-billion-pound deal Rolls-Royce, with Prime Minister Keir Starmer calling it a "major win for Britain's economy," as it highlights the country's technology and innovation in helping drive Europe's clean energy transition.

US Judge Refuses to Release GE Vernova From $4.5 Billion New England Wind Project

A Massachusetts judge has refused to release GE Vernova (GEV) from its contractual work on a $4.5 billion wind farm in New England, saying it should instead raise its dispute with developer Vineyard Wind to arbitration.Suffolk County Superior Court Judge Peter Krupp noted that nothing had materially changed since he had passed the injunction in April, allowing Vineyard Wind to pursue its legal dispute in court for immediate relief.Vineyard Wind, a joint venture between Spain's Iberdrola and Denmark's Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, had sued GE Vernova after the company had issued a notice threatening to terminate its agreement due to non-payment of $360 million.The company had argued that GE Vernova's decision to exit its 62-turbine, 806-megawatt project would threaten its commercial viability.In his judgment, Krupp noted that the project relied on GE's "expertise and proprietary know-how to bring the turbines up to operational capacity," thus putting it in jeopardy if the company, its employees, and subcontractors decided to walk out abruptly.Vineyard Wind had argued that it was entitled to withhold payments from GE Vernova after one of its turbine blades collapsed and fell into the waters of Nantucket in 2024.

European Wind Power Developers Face Higher Prices, Supply Constraints, Says Rystad Energy

Europe's offshore wind expansion ambition are running up against turbine supply constraints as well as rising prices in a market increasingly reliant on a concentrated group of manufacturers, Rystad Energy said on Wednesday.Siemens Gamesa and Vestas products are basically the only product options available to European developers since GE Vernova (GEV) paused new order intake due to operational setbacks, Rystad said.Rystad has found that turbine selling prices have risen between 40% and 45% since 2020, well in excess of manufacturing cost increases of 20% to 25% since then.The manufacturing cost increases come down to the turbines' most technically complex components such as the nacelle that contained the generator, gearbox and power electronics. There are also growing pressures within blade manufacturing, Rystad's research notes.Rystad said the result of the equipment supply bottleneck is that progress on deployment of this form of renewable power is now at least as much decided by equipment availability as it is down to political ambition.The research said that high demand, a limited supplier base and the growing complexity of turbines means that manufacturers have "real pricing power and the ability to be selective about which projects get built."Rystad concluded that Europe needed to expand manufacturing capacity or find workarounds to this set of problems otherwise it will face missing its 2030 targets for renewable energy and pay more for capacity it does install.The note says that larger 14 megawatt to 15 MW turbines have been dominant among recent deliveries to offshore projects, eclipsing those of 9-10 MW capacity.Rystad's research shone a light on a less evident trend beyond component costs, highlighting that some of their price hikes are reactionary, after manufacturers got somewhat burned by fixed-price supply contracts entered into immediately before a period of higher inflation.In a seller's market, manufacturers no longer feel pressure to assume such risks through that contract model and are passing more of future cost increases on to developers, Rystad said.

Market Chatter: Siemens Energy, GE Vernova Raise Payment Risks for Venezuela Power Rebuild

Venezuela's $100 billion grid rebuild push faces setbacks as firms question payments, with under 13,000 megawatts available from a capacity of 36,000 MW, Reuters reported Monday, citing two sources involved in talks.Executives from Siemens Energy and GE Vernova (GEV) raised payment concerns during April meetings in Caracas, prompting financiers to be cautious about supporting grid upgrades.Those concerns weakened confidence in Venezuela's effort to revive infrastructure under a $100 billion reconstruction plan backed by Washington.Interim President Delcy Rodriguez is prioritizing reliable electricity after taking office in January, but the government has not secured firm payment guarantees for contractors.An executive who attended the Caracas meeting said a decade of neglected plants created massive repair needs, while authorities still lack a clear payment mechanism for suppliers.Available generation remains below 40%, driving repeated outages and restricting industrial output nationwide, according to the report.Thermal plant expansion through 2013 under Hugo Chavez left billions of dollars unpaid to contractors, many of whom authorities are now urging to return.Unclear project priorities, equipment needs, and approval requirements from both Washington and Caracas continue to delay investment decisions, the report added, citing the sources.Venezuela operates less than 13,000 MW from a total installed capacity of 36,000 MW, with fuel-based plants accounting for about 2,500 MW, or roughly 13% of capacity.Rodriguez is targeting repairs at two major thermal plants in early phases, though officials have yet to outline a broader recovery strategy.Multinational companies remain cautious about returning to Venezuela after past disputes during the Hugo Chavez era, when unpaid contracts eroded trust and discouraged future engagement.Several firms that did not receive cash payments pursued arbitration or filed legal claims abroad after accepting promissory notes, which they later sold at steep discounts.Rodriguez's government turned down a proposal from foreign firms that requested upfront payments for repairs and spare parts, while some financiers proposed routing payments through US Treasury-supervised oil revenue accounts, the report added, citing sources.has reached out to Siemens Energy, GE Vernova and PDVSA for any comments.(Market Chatter news is derived from conversations with market professionals globally.
