New Directions in Nuclear Energy, 1st Edition, provides an academic reference volume examining developments across fission and fusion to support global decarbonization goals. Edited by Andrew Foss and Nicolas Stauff, the publication establishes analytical frameworks for nuclear energy researchers, energy industry professionals, and students studying nuclear or energy-related subjects.
The reference synthesizes technical, financial, and deployment dimensions necessary for advanced reactor adoption across power markets. Core thematic coverage addresses nuclear economics, pathways for cost reduction, and ESG investment structures. These chapters demonstrate how financial evaluation methods and cost management strategies function within energy sector planning.
Beyond conventional terrestrial power generation, the publication explores transportable nuclear power plants for maritime deployment as well as specialized nuclear energy systems for space propulsion and surface power. This reference offers a structured source for academic courses, postgraduate study, and industry research programs focused on low-carbon energy systems.
