Nuclear Power’s Water Challenge Is Manageable and Limited

“Heat- and drought-driven limits on once-through cooling are cited as evidence that riverine nuclear power is incompatible with a warming, water-constrained world. We compile the first global event inventory of weather-linked nuclear curtailments (2003–2022) and a cross-jurisdiction chronology of regulatory-flexibility episodes that relaxed thermal-discharge limits during heatwaves (2003–2024). These records are merged with monthly generation […] The post Nuclear Power’s Water Challenge Is Manageable and Limited appeared first on Human Progress.
