NEA support for countries interested in calculating their system costs and optimising their electricity system

The imperative to reduce carbon emissions is profoundly transforming the electricity and energy systems of OECD and NEA countries. This sets in motion a number of interrelated developments that chall...

The Ad hoc Expert Group on Nuclear Energy and Security of Supply, which had been formed to carry out the study, met for the first time on 22-23 November 2007 at OECD/NEA offices in Issy-les-Moulineau...

This expert group investigated what are the cogeneration capabilities of various advanced reactor designs, as well as the flexibility they may have to switch from electricity generation to heat produ...

The NEA Ad hoc Expert Group on Reducing the Costs of Nuclear Power Generation was established in 2018 to evaluate the construction cost reduction opportunities arising at different levels and timefra...

The goal of the Ad Hoc Expert Group on Physical Limits to the Development of Nuclear Energy was to analyse and document the physical limits, if any, arising from a possible significant increase in nu...

Under the Paris Agreement, OECD countries agreed to aim for a reduction of their greenhouse gas emissions sufficient to hold the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2°C above pre...

Nuclear energy is an important source of low-carbon electricity and plays a significant role in avoiding carbon emissions. It has the potential to contribute further to the decarbonisation of the wor...

• Post-pandemic recovery plans to reconcile climate objectives with economic goals need to put system costs at the heart of energy policy.
• Moving to a carbon neutral electricity system without nuclear...

This joint report by the International Energy Agency (IEA) and the Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) is the ninth in a series of studies on electricity generating costs. As countries work towards ensuring ...

This ongoing series on projected costs of generating electricity presents and analyses cost estimates for some 130 power and co-generation (heat and power) plants using coal, gas, nuclear and renewab...

The levelised costs of electricity generation of low-carbon generation technologies are falling and are increasingly below the costs of conventional fossil fuel generation, finds the 2020 edition of ...
