Voices of Nuclear are at the second International Conference on Climate change and the role of Nuclear power #Atoms4NetZero organized by the #IAEA this week, and will present two papers during the sessions 💬
On Tuesday, October 10th, in the Net Zero modelling: integrated energy system modelling scenarios session ▶️ #TERRAWATER💠 ENERGY SCENARIO: AN ENERGY RELAY RACE
On Wednesday, October 11th, in the effective stakeholder engagement strategy session ▶️ CIVIL SOCIETY CONTRIBUTION TO LEVEL THE PLAYING FIELD FOR NUCLEAR ENERGY DEPLOYMENT: LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE FRENCH CASE
Today, France must decide anew what its future energy system will be to achieve #carbonneutrality by 2050, while delivering reliable, low-carbon electricity to everyone, and on what criteria to base its choice.
Voices of Nuclear propose an approach that has been radically missing in the debate: a search for the technical optimum, free from dogma, interests, and presumptions, aiming for optimally achieved #climate protection, minimization of environmental footprint, solidarity at all levels and sovereignty of national energy supply, using energy sources for what they are good at.
We believe the methodology applied and its conclusions may be of interest to France’s neighbors and beyond. First because due to its location and size, the French #electricity system is central to the European interconnected area. Second, because the trajectory envisioned in this scenario is meant to set an example, for hydropower- and nuclear-able countries, of a strategy that works to achieve a carbon-neutral electricity mix while preserving national targets.
This scenario sorts the #energy sources into three categories following what they are best suited for:
🔹 #Nuclear: the concrete-slab like basement, long-term but slower to build, low impact, solid base of production to fulfil the bulk demand for decades to come.
🔹 #Wind and #solar: filling materials, providing quick-to-deploy burst of clean energy to jump start the short-term mass electrification of uses.
🔹 #Hydropower (mainly PSP) and marginally biomass: cement of the grid, providing the storage component essential to stability without fossil fuels, without the need for technological bets.In this relay race, the TerraWater scenario is designed to avoid traditional energy transition modelling pitfalls, with ambitious objectives, clear criteria, and realistic resources.
It makes the demonstration that positioning nuclear energy at the center of an #energytransition strategy with the right use of renewables gives it its best chances of short-term success and long-term sustainability, combined targets that seem out of reach for most existing scenarios relying heavily on technologies that are either immature or not deployable at scale.

la Chine envisage de ne plus exporter ses productions de panneau solaire sous peu. qu'est ce qui pourrait mal se passer pour les scénarii énergétiques de beaucoup d'autres pays qui comptent intégralement sur les imports et ne prévoient rien en cas de manquement ?
l'équipe @charbongaz est prête pour faire du charbon de backup, ouf !#souverainetéÉnergétique #repowerEU #terrawater #negawatt #Metawatt #climat #énergie

Dans les scénarii de futurs énergétiques #rte #negawatt #terrawater #belfort #ademe, qui demandera plus de cuivre, d'espace artificialisé, de métaux critiques, de CO2 envoyé dans l'air? Toutes les comparaisons sont disponibles sur #metawatt créé par @edhelas qui a rejoint #mastodon o/
