Ontario Sees an Opportunity in Nuclear and Energy Storage
The Nuclear Innovation Institute (NII) report said that Ontario could decrease its reliance on gas-fired plants while keeping its electricity system reliable. This could be possible by using energy storage with long-duration paired with the emission-free electricity coming from the Bruce nuclear power plant.
The same report said that while Ontario aims for a net-zero, the higher capacity energy storage levels can be useful in future electricity grids. These technologies work best in a similar setup done in Ontario that paved the way for a steady supply of …
