The German electricity market has recovered well from the 2022 energy crisis. Policymakers should now redirect the focus of energy policy to further expanding renewable energy sources. The year 2023 showed that the German electricity supply remained secure following the shutdown of nuclear power...

renewables. In this context, we discuss a major difference between the European transformation to a low-carbon economy and the … the European agenda. Meanwhile, the potential of renewables has been systematically underestimated in European scenario … on the traditional triad of coal (with CCTS), nuclear, and renewables. In the other scenario, based on our own modelling …

Der deutsche Strommarkt hat sich gut vom Krisenjahr 2022 erholt. Die Energiepolitik sollte sich nun wieder auf den Ausbau erneuerbarer Energien fokussieren. Das letzte Jahr hat gezeigt, dass die Stromversorgung auch nach Abschalten der Kernkraftwerke sicher ist. Den Stromverbrauch durch 80...

Most climate and energy scenarios created by international organizations and researchers include a considerable expansion of nuclear energy. In the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report, for example, nuclear energy increases from a current 3,000 terawatt hours on average to over 6,000 terawatt hours in...

This paper analyzes nuclear power plant investments using Monte Carlo simulations of economic indicators such as net present value (NPV) and levelized cost of electricity (LCOE). In times of liberalized electricity markets, largescale decarbonization and climate change considerations, this topic...

At just 4.4 percent, the contribution made by nuclear power to meeting the world’s primary energy requirements is marginal and on the decline. The current nuclear power fleet is outdated with around 200 plants due to be phased out over the next ten years compared to as few as 46 new nuclear...

The catastrophic accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant on March 11, 2011, revealed unexpected safety risks of nuclear energy once again. It also accelerated the decline of nuclear energy in the international energy sector: Nuclear energy’s share of global electricity generation...
