Nuclear power key to reducing costs in future low-carbon electricity system
The article explores how the future electricity system can be made more eco-friendly by looking at nuclear power and changing demand patterns. The researchers found that including nuclear power can lower costs by 4% in Sweden, but it may not be the best choice for a low-carbon future. They also discovered that different electricity demand patterns have little impact on costs, except during summer peaks when costs could rise by up to 8%.
