Overview

Achieving a carbon-free future is a pressing challenge, and advanced nuclear systems emerge as a pivotal solution in the global transition to clean energy. As the world seeks reliable, low-emission alternatives to fossil fuels, next-generation nuclear technologies offer promising solutions for deep decarbonization. These systems are designed to be safer, more efficient, and more adaptable than traditional nuclear plants, pairing well with renewable sources like wind and solar. By investing in and accelerating the deployment of advanced nuclear energy, organizations can strengthen energy security while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Pathways to a Carbon-Free Future Through Advanced Nuclear Systems explores the latest developments in nuclear energy, presenting a visionary pathway for its role in addressing global climate challenges. It examines the integration of nuclear power with renewable energy systems, showcasing hybrid approaches that combine the reliability of nuclear energy with the intermittency of wind and solar, presenting nuclear energy s role in decarbonizing heavy industries. This book covers topics such as renewable energy, climate resilience, and carbon emissions, and is a useful resource for engineers, business owners, academicians, researchers, and environmental scientists.
