The Role of Nuclear Energy in Reducing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions and Energy Security: A Systematic Review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
The energy sector accounts for about two‐thirds of all human‐related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions due to the reliance on fossil‐based fuels. This is a significant concern as it can have dire consequences on the survival of humankind and disrupt other natural processes.
