Siemens Canada to build a digital twin of Rock Tech's Ontario lithium converter

Siemens Canada will develop a digital process twin for Rock Tech Lithium's planned Red Rock Lithium Converter in Ontario.

Siemens will also support the ongoing definitive feasibility study, expected to be finalized by mid-December 2026, in process control, instrumentation and automation architecture.

  • 01Siemens' control and automation support is part of the ongoing feasibility study, which suggests Red Rock's control layer is being shaped at the study stage.
  • 02The DFS, expected to be finalized by mid-December 2026, is the next hard marker: the first version of the twin is built on its results.
  • 03Rock Tech and Siemens say they want Red Rock to serve as a blueprint for future converters in Canada and allied markets, and they will evaluate applying the cooperation to projects in other G7 countries.

Blue Energy asks NRC to approve building the gas portion of its Texas plant first

Blue Energy has submitted the first part of a permit application to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission. It covers the first nuclear unit at the company's planned gas-to-nuclear plant in Texas. Blue Energy wants approval to build the natural gas units and balance-of-plant systems before adding the nuclear reactors.

  • 01Blue Energy says the plant will be project-financed rather than paid for by ratepayers. For data center and industrial power buyers, the financing terms could matter as much as the reactor choice.
