Construction of nuclear reactors to obtain desired electricity-generating capacity

S.S. Penner

Energy, 1976, vol. 1, issue 1, 45-51

Abstract: Schedules for nuclear-reactor development may be determined for any desired electricity-generating capacity. Net-energy ratios for nuclear-energy production from LWRs (light-water-moderated reactors) using high-grade ore are sufficiently favorably to allow construction of reactor scenarios that imply large savings in fossil-fuel resources during predetermined periods of time.
