, Head of Global Systems, as he discusses the concept of reference design and its pivotal role in transforming major construction programmes.. Key takeaways:.

Understanding reference design:.If our objective is to replace enough dirty energy with clean energy in time for us to decarbonise and avert the worst consequences of global warming, we need to close down as many dirty energy sources as possible and replace them with clean energy sources.

Specifically, we need to decarbonisecoal plants, as at current rates, coal plants will use up all of the available CO. 2. budget by themselves.. 3.It is really not a question any more of comparing different types of energy production but, instead, a matter of comparing different portfolios of energy production that are able to produce the energy required with significantly lower carbon emissions, and that can also be implemented quickly enough.

The question is whether to do so we need an energy production portfolio without nuclear power, or one that includes nuclear energy.And so, in this case, the question ‘is nuclear energy renewable?’ may be less important than ‘can nuclear power help us tackle the climate crisis?’.
