Development a component of ensuring reliability and facilitating economic growth

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Ameren Missouri, a subsidiary of Ameren Corporation (NYSE: AEE), announced plans to develop an additional low-cost energy source to power 44,000 homes and provide 300 construction jobs.

Building on a series of recent announcements focusing on investing in a reliable and balanced mix of energy resources, the company filed a proposal with the Missouri Public Service Commission (PSC) to construct the 250-megawatt (MW) Reform Renewable Energy Center.

The solar facility is planned adjacent to the company’s existing nuclear powered Callaway Energy Center in central Missouri. Pending timely approval, construction will begin next year, with the project ready to serve customers in 2028.

Like Callaway Energy Center, the project is anticipated to be an economic engine in the community, adding an estimated 300 high-quality construction jobs at its peak, generating demand for support services and suppliers, and contributing to the area’s economic vitality. There will also be permanent jobs for maintenance and ongoing operations once in service.

“For more than 40 years, Callaway Energy Center has been a dependable source of energy for Missouri, and this new project will produce more locally generated energy,” said Mark Birk, chairman and president of Ameren Missouri. “Reform will also help us meet our goal of a balanced energy mix of about 70% from on-demand and 30% from intermittent sources, which allows us to achieve the two things our customers find most valuable: reliability and affordability.”

Ameren Missouri owns the land for the proposed facility and the transmission interconnection, reducing construction time and expenses. Reform also offers customers exceptional value thanks to available tax incentives, including its location inside an energy community.

“The Reform project will benefit our customers, the communities we serve and the entire state,” said Ajay Arora, senior vice president and chief development officer at Ameren Missouri.”

The site can also host up to 250 MW of energy storage. In the future, Ameren Missouri may apply to the PSC to install batteries at the Reform site. The batteries would store excess energy produced by the facility and discharge it when demand on the grid is higher, when customers need it most.

Alongside the Reform Renewable Energy Center, Ameren Missouri is developing several projects to ensure long-term reliability. The Castle Bluff Energy Center, scheduled to be online in 2027, will provide backup power during peak demand. The planned Big Hollow Energy Center, pending approval and slated for completion in 2028, will be Ameren Missouri’s first hybrid facility combining natural gas and battery storage. Four solar projects, representing more than 400 MW, are under construction and expected to begin serving customers by the end of next year. They will join three solar sites brought online at the end of 2024, which are collectively generating enough power for 92,000 homes annually.

TAIPEI, Sept. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — ProLogium Technology, a key actor in solid-state battery innovation, and the CEA announced today their partnership to develop an innovative solid-state battery module with a “Design-for-Disassembly” structure. This technical partnership reflects their shared commitment to accelerating the industrialization of high-performance and sustainable energy solutions. It holds significant strategic value for achieving France and Europe’s goal of battery industry autonomy as well as supporting the broader energy transition.

Since the start of this collaboration in November 2024, the two parties have been creating a breakthrough battery system that combines high energy density with a modular, easy-to-dismantle design. This approach enhances product performance across three key sustainability metrics: reparability, recyclability, and reusability. CEA brings its extensive engineering and experience expertise in module design, prototyping, and testing & validation, while ProLogium contributes with its globally leading “Superfluidized all-inorganic solid-state lithium ceramic battery cells” — renowned for their high energy density, intrinsic safety, ultra-fast charging, and outstanding low-temperature performance. A mock-up module prototype for the automotive industry will be presented at IAA Mobility 2025 in Munich, Sept. 9-11.

Conventional liquid batteries, in pursuit of higher pack-level energy density, have moved toward closed architectures such as CTP (Cell-to-Pack) and CTC (Cell-to-Chassis). However, these architectures have reduced safety margins and sacrificed module-level reparability and recycling efficiency: if a single cell fails, the entire module must often be shredded and scrapped. On the other hand, repairable designs typically require extra structural space, potentially lowering energy density at module level. As a result, only cells with sufficiently high intrinsic energy density can offset this structural trade-off while preserving overall performance advantages.

By introducing the “Design-for-Disassembly” concept, ProLogium and CEA directly address industry pain points in recycling and circularity, marking a key step toward efficient and sustainable battery lifecycle management. The enhanced module architecture enables individual cells to be replaced independently, thus significantly reducing electronic waste, shortening repair times, and optimizing overall costs.

This innovative architecture allows the module to be removed from the battery pack, and easily disassembled to access the cells. It enables the easy recovery of individual cells which will ease the separation of the different cell components for recycling and reuse, while also facilitating modular repair. This not only embodies the principles of a circular economy, but also provides France and Europe with a concrete, scalable solution to upgrade and integrate their regional battery supply chains and recycling industries.

The new module will make its official debut at IAA Mobility 2025 in Munich. We warmly welcome visitors to explore our innovations at Hall B2, Booth E20 and experience ProLogium’s cutting-edge solid-state battery technology firsthand.

This collaboration will further strengthen France and Europe’s technological leadership in solid-state battery R&D and manufacturing. As a leading actor in the battery value chain, ProLogium’s innovations align closely with Europe’s long-term industrial policy — advancing the energy transition while contributing to core strategic objectives such as industrial autonomy, carbon neutrality, and circular economy practices.

“Science – In Short” and “Who’s Who in the US DOE Climate Science Report?” are two new video offerings from Friends of Science Society, meant to complement the nuanced “no climate emergency” report with additional plain language resources for the public. A rebuttal report by Dressler et al fills mainstream media, framing the DOE report authors as “contrarians.”

CALGARY, AB, Sept. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — In response to the recent US Department of Energy (DOE) Climate Science report a group of some 85 scientists have issued a rebuttal with CNN reporting on Sept. 02, 2025 that “five well-known contrarians” wrote the DOE report, says Friends of Science Society. Friends of Science Society is offering some plain language resources to help the public understand what is at stake. The battle between “Contrarians vs Compliers” should be a matter of open, civil debate, says Friends of Science Society, noting there is a broad spectrum of views in the public in their video, “Climate Diversity is our Strength: You Have a Right to Dissent.

Science – In Short” is a Friends of Science Society video that offers highlights of the chapter summaries of the US DOE report “A Critical Review of Impacts of Greenhouse Gas Emissions on the U.S. Climate. A second video “Who’s Who in the US DOE Climate Science Report?” gives the public an introduction to the authors of the report and their works. A blog post offers additional information.

A surprising insight from the US DOE report from Chapter 11 on the Social Cost of Carbon (from which carbon tax rates are derived) is that: “Economists have long considered climate a relatively unimportant factor in economic growth, a view echoed by the IPCC itself in AR5. Mainstream climate economics has recognized that CO2-induced warming might have some negative economic effects, but they are too small to justify aggressive abatement policy and that trying to “stop” or cap global warming even at levels well above the Paris target would be worse than doing nothing.”

As per comments submitted in response to the DOE report, by Friends of Science Society’s research director, Ken Gregory, the social ‘costs’ of carbon dioxide should actually be reframed as the social benefits. If, as the US DOE climate report states, there is no climate crisis, there is no need for further costly misapplication of public funds to “climate action,” says Friends of Science Society.

Both videos reference a comment by Energy Secretary Chris Wright from the foreword, “What I’ve found is that media coverage often distorts the science. Many people walk away with a view of climate change that is exaggerated or incomplete.”

Axios is reporting that climate scientist Andrew Dressler of Texas A&M University, lead coordinator of the rebuttal report, commented by email that the DOE report makes a “mockery of science.

That view is not shared by Rear Admiral Tim Gallaudet (U.S. Navy, ret.), Ph.D., the vice chairman of the Board of Directors for Force Blue, former acting and deputy administrator of NOAA, acting under secretary and assistant secretary of commerce, and oceanographer of the Navy.

His positive op-ed in the Epoch Times of Aug. 26, 2025, expresses gratitude for “Finally, an Unbiased and Objective Climate Science Report.” Gallaudet had this to say: “For too long, the American people have been fed an unrealistic narrative that climate change is an existential threat that only drastic reductions in fossil fuel use will solve. Secretary Wright has finally got it right, and it’s about time that the United States supports unbiased and objective climate science.” 

To Energy Secretary Chris Wright’s point about media coverage, in the video, “Who’s Who…” Friends of Science Society offers the example of the umbrella media organization “Covering Climate Now.” This group of some 500 media outlets with an audience reach of 2 billion people creates coordinated media climate campaigns. In the Spring 2020 edition of the Columbia Journalism Review “The Climate Issue,” they interviewed the director of the dystopian film series “Mad Max” for tips for journos on “how to make climate fear compelling.” 

Join Friends of Science Society in the “Race from Net Zero” with our fall special event: “Food Prices, Farming and Net Zero Ideology” on Sept. 25, 2025, in Calgary or via live stream.

About
Friends of Science Society is an independent group of earth, atmospheric and solar scientists, engineers, and citizens that is celebrating its 23rd year of offering climate science insights. After a thorough review of a broad spectrum of literature on climate change, Friends of Science Society has concluded that the sun is the main driver of climate change, not carbon dioxide (CO2).
