미래 에너지시스템에서 원자력의 경제적 가치 (Economic Value of Nuclear Power in Future Energy Systems)
본 보고서는 에너지 시스템에서 원자력이 현재와 미래에 수행할 것으로 예상되는 역할뿐만 아니라 현재 지역 전기 시장이 작동하는 이면의 경제적 원리에 대해 설명하고 있습니다.
In order to reduce the absolute levels of carbon emissions, the nature of energy systems has to change dramatically. This is the reason governments are promoting the development and use of renewable energy sources like solar PV, wind turbines, hydropower and biomass. Despite these policies, the growth in renewable energy will likely not be sufficient to reduce carbon emissions to the extent required to meet climate targets, also because the demand for electricity is going to increase because of electrification and production of hydrogen. Therefore, the attention is increasingly also going to another non-carbon energy source, which is nuclear power. The Dutch government, for instance, recently declared that it will enable the construction of two new nuclear power plants in the Netherlands.
