Department of Energy (DOE) released a report suggesting that, in theory, over 300 former and present coal power plants could be converted to nuclear. Most nuclear plants around the world today are large light-water reactors, with capacities well over a gigawatt—quite a bit more than typical coal plants. On 13 September, the U.S.

It is a strategy rooted in cross-cutting research and engineering to enable industry stakeholders, communities, government agencies, and early adopters to meet their climate goals. In NREL’s bioenergy program, for example, we have chemists studying the fundamental chemistry of converting biomass and waste materials into fuel.

The researchers used a four-step process in their study: Determining the relative change in global, all-sector CO 2 emissions required for CO 2 stabilization at 450 ppm. They converted from an absolute amount to scale relative to 2000. Climate Change Emissions Fuel Efficiency Policy' —Winkler et al.

This finding will help researchers improve how they portray clouds in climate models. Capturing such contributions will increase the accuracy of climate models, the team from the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory reported in Geophysical Research Letters earlier this month.
