In November 2024, in Petten (The Netherlands), I reconvened the GEMINI 4.0 consortium to share the progress made toward achieving the objectives of our GEMINI 4.0 project: confirming that a GEMINI+ system can safely and efficiently decarbonize various industrial activities through nuclear cogeneration of process steam, electricity, and hydrogen at the required large scale. The meeting was hosted by the
