Nuclear Heat to Decarbonize the Energy Sector

Global climate change has already observable effects on the environment and there is an international consensus now on the urgency to act in order to decarbonize the whole energy sector. Worldwide leaders will gather this year in the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference, also known as COP26, planned for Nov 1 - Nov 12, 2021 in Glasgow to discuss how to join efforts and address the urgency to mitigate climate change.Using nuclear power plants not only for electricity generation but also to provide simultaneously electricity and process heat for industrial applications is an attractive option for decarbonizing the whole energy sector, while also boosting the efficiency of nuclear power plants.
