Research Shows Benefits of Pairing Renewable Resources with Flexible Nuclear Operation

Research Shows Benefits of Pairing Renewable Resources with Flexible Nuclear Operation

In the Southwestern United States, the country's sunniest region, sunlight can shine down for up to 14 hours a day. This makes the location ideal for implementing solar energy — and the perfect test-bed for MIT Energy Initiative researcher Jesse Jenkins and his colleagues at Argonne National Laboratory to model the benefits of pairing renewable resources with more flexible operation of nuclear power plants.
