That means much less waste and a better deal for the environment. That’s why gas-powered cars need complex and expensive radiator systems with their associated belts, pipes, and heat exchangers. Nuclear is by no means ideal, but it is serving to bridge the gap to a zero-carbon future. You’ll feel the loss of energy.

The Regulation sets a time limit on the inclusion of nuclear energy but not on fossil fuels and grants the Commission special powers to rule on nuclear taxonomy compliance. The Regulation sets a deadline on the operation of final disposal facilities for radioactive waste. This makes the condition impractical.

He says the old fission power model is out and a complete rework is on the way from, for example, TerraPower, a nuclear reactor design company developing a class of nuclear fast reactors called the traveling wave reactor. It uses depleted uranium as fuel and could reduce our 700,000 metric tons of nuclear waste.
