New Generation Resources: Advanced Reactors, Fusion, Hydrogen
Decarbonization of the global economy in the near term necessarily focuses on current energy options for industrial and consumer applications. In addition, new carbon-free energy resources with higher power density are essential for a full energy transition and continued energy evolution (Smil 2021). In this article we examine opportunities and challenges to be addressed for advanced nuclear, hydrogen, and fusion energy.
