Why does someone choose to do business with one company over another? What’s the differentiating factor? In this episode of FlowCast, a Trillium Flow Technologies podcast, host Shelby Skrhak sought to answer that question with Trillium Divisional Managing Director Nick Adcock, an accomplished global business leader with experience across several key markets, including oil and gas, automotive, and aerospace.

He discussed why focusing on customer needs and having a strong constancy of purpose can be the difference-maker in your business.

“All businesses want to be more competitive, more efficient, more reliable and have more compliant products, because our customers are demanding it,” Adcock said.

That’s why providing products with the latest industry technology is important, but meeting customer demand is more than providing a satisfactory product. The key is understanding the universal appeal of great customer service.

“No matter what sector you work in, all customers highly value great service,” Adcock said. “We all do. Before the sale, during the sale process, after you’ve delivered your products – it’s that after-service that people remember.”

Meeting a customer’s needs means meeting that customer where they are — literally and metaphorically.

“Customers like doing business in their own language, in their own culture,” Adock said. “They like doing business locally, in their own time zone, so they can see you and talk to you.”

NuScale and Nucor’s SMR talks put “always-on” power back in industrial planning

NuScale and Nucor’s SMR talks put “always-on” power back in industrial planning

NuScale Power and Nucor signed an MOU to explore co-locating NuScale VOYGR small modular nuclear reactor plants near Nucor electric arc furnace steel mills, including studies of site suitability, transmission interconnection capability, and capital costs, according to POWER Magazine. The move lands as commercial and industrial energy buyers are re-evaluating “return quality” across distributed energy resource value stacks, a dynamic pv magazine USA illustrated with Massachusetts electricity rates rising to about 20.9 cents/kWh for commercial customers in 2024, up roughly 61% from 2014. At the same time, grid-facing flexibility is getting practical attention, with Renewable Energy World’s Factor This reporting on managed EV charging and vehicle-to-grid reforms needed to scale V2X. For operators, the implication is clear: “firm” electricity is no longer a single procurement lane, it’s a portfolio decision spanning on-site generation, grid programs, and controllable load.

  • 01The operational question behind the NuScale-Nucor MOU is not “nuclear vs renewables,” it’s whether a mill can secure 24/7 power with a permitting and interconnection path that matches expansion timelines (POWER Magazine).
  • 02A useful benchmark for C&I energy planning: Massachusetts average commercial electricity rates rose from roughly 13.0 cents/kWh in 2014 to 20.9 cents/kWh in 2024, well above the 2024 national commercial average of about 13.9 cents/kWh (pv magazine USA, citing EIA data).
  • 03Managed EV charging and V2X are shifting from pilots to policy and tariff design work, which means facilities with fleet electrification can treat charging as a dispatchable asset only if their utility and program rules allow it (Renewable Energy World).

GE Vernova is adding HVDC capacity as grids scramble to serve data centers

GE Vernova is adding HVDC capacity as grids scramble to serve data centers

GE Vernova is enhancing its high-voltage direct current (HVDC) capacity as part of efforts to meet increasing demand from data centers. The company is navigating challenges in project timelines caused by equipment lead times, which now dictate power-plant schedules.

  • 01GE Vernova is expanding its HVDC capacity to support increasing data center demands.
  • 02Project timelines for power plants are now dictated by equipment lead times rather than design.
  • 03GE Vernova's initiatives occur amidst growing urgency to upgrade transmission capabilities.

SMR power deals hinge on fuel supply, licensing and waste, not just megawatts

SMR power deals hinge on fuel supply, licensing and waste, not just megawatts

As TerraPower's Natrium and X-energy's reactors move toward deployment, HALEU fuel availability, NRC licensing pathways, and waste handling plans are becoming key diligence points for enterprise buyers evaluating SMR power deals. The article argues these fuel and waste assumptions, once treated as policy footnotes, now belong in RFP checklists.

  • 01HALEU fuel supply has already delayed TerraPower's Natrium startup target from 2028 to 2030.
  • 02The NRC's Part 53 framework and the 2024 ADVANCE Act aim to streamline licensing for advanced reactors.
  • 03The article recommends buyers press vendors on fuel supply schedules, licensing pathway, and waste handling plans before signing.
