This miraculous trajectory is confronted by the consensus that anthropogenic emissions are harmful and must decrease, requiring de-carbonization of the energy system. ..The mature field of indicator-based sustainability assessment provides a rigorous systematic framework to balance the pros and cons of the various existing energy technologies using lifecycle assessments and weighting criteria covering the environment, economy, and society, as the three pillars of sustainability. In such a framework, nuclear power is ranked favorably, but since emphasis is often placed on radioactive wastes and risk aversion, renewables are usually ranked top. However, quantifying the severity of the consequences of nuclear accidents on a rough integral cost basis and balancing severity with low core-damage accident probabilities indicates that the average external cost of such accidents is similar to that of modern renewables, and far less than carbon-based energy...This book formulates the overall goal and assoc | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | 关键词 | Nuclear Power operations; Low carbon electricity; De-carbonization of the energy system; Probabilistic | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-97652-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-07384-8 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-97652-5 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019 |
