In the 1950s, nuclear was the energy of the future. Two generations later, it provides only about 10% of world electricity, and reactor design hasn‘t fundamentally changed in decades. Why has it been a flop? Here's my review of a recent book on that topic: https://t.co/FXjrfCSDet
Jeudi 3 décembre à 09h30, audition de #VirginieWasselin, chef du service stratégie filières @Andra_France, par @tgassilloud et @StephPiednoir, rapporteurs @AN_OPECST, sur le thème : "Matières et déchets nucléaires : le cas de l'uranium appauvri".

Total plutonium inventory of a 1-GWe FBR: 5.5 tons of plutonium.
The PWR power plateau is constrained by two conditions:
1) Uranium consumption less than 16 million tons, estimated reserves by the NEA.
2) Reach 19,000 GWe FBR in 2100.
#GISOC was present at COP25 in Madrid.
During the side event organized by @Nuclear4Climate, GISOC presented our understanding of the SDGs. We also presented the poster from the IAEA conference "Atoms for climate" which we translated in French.

Physics explains that GHG emiss by human activities are inducing -and will induce- large modifications.
We describe some of the observed phenomena and discuss the main methods to manage the pb:
-Shift to elec
-Decarbonize through elec
-Make a large (not exclusive) use of NucPower
