Nuclear energy future outlook
Lastly, a story from a field that continues to be a favorite of mine and a source for nuclear and clean energy optimism: small modular nuclear reactors. This technology would provide many the same benefits of existing large nuclear power plants, but with decreased capital costs, quicker time to build, and increased flexibility in where to build (making them closer to a DER). Nuclear goes retro — with a much greener outlook. Returning to designs abandoned in the 1970s, start-ups are developing a new kind of reactor that promises to be much safer and cleaner than current ones. According to the Government Accountability Office, the U.S. nuclear power industry has generated more than 88,000 tons of radioactive waste. That waste is accumulating in nuclear plants across Nuclear energy is a zero-emission clean energy source, which is generated through nuclear fission, the heat which is created is used to create steam spinning a turbine to generate electricity without the harmful emissions released by fossil fuels. One Uranium fuel pellet produces as much energy as three barrels Status and Outlook for Nuclear Energy In the United States Executive Summary The U.S. nuclear power industry continues to make pro-gress toward the construction of new nuclear power plants in the United States. Currently, 13 license applica-tions are under active review by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for up to 22 new reactors. The De- Uranium outlook 2020: SMRs lighting the future Along with growth in investment options, the uranium market itself is expected to expand as small modular reactors (SMRs) become less of a concept
Predicting China’s future is a fool’s errand. Some contemporary authors claim that China will soon collapse, others that China will instead dominate the world. 326 No such narratives have captured the imaginations of analysts looking at China’s nuclear power system but,
Almost all reports on future energy supply from major organisations suggest an increasing role for nuclear power as an Primary energy and electricity outlook.

The conversation surrounding achieving the climate goals laid out in Paris of limiting a temperature increase to 1.5 degrees In EIA’s Annual Energy Outlook 2018 (AEO2018) Reference case, U.S. nuclear power generating capacity is projected to decline from 99.3 gigawatts (GW) to 79.1 GW over the projection period of 2017 –50. Many clean energy advocates recognize that nuclear power in some form is essential to moving forward with a complete clean energy transition. While nuclear power is not without it's sources of controversy (whether fears stoked from previous nuclear disasters, Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration, Annual Energy Outlook 2013. The projected path of natural gas prices is a key driver in the decision to build new nuclear capacity. In the AEO 2013 Reference case, an additional 5.5 GW of economically driven nuclear capacity is projected to be operational after 2035 in order to meet growing demand for electricity.
The Nuclear Energy Agency, in its first ever Nuclear. Energy Outlook, released in 2008, projected a total of just under 600 GWe by 2030 as its high scenario,.
