With the goal to catalyze more rapid and coordinated action across the full technology value chain, @ENERGY's #NuclearLiftoff establishes a common fact-base for the private sector for critical clean energy technologies. #BuildNuclearNow 1/x liftoff.energy.gov/wp-content/upl… 
Regardless of level of #renewables deployment, to achieve net-zero in the U.S. by 2050 requires ~550–770 GW of additional clean, firm capacity. Modeling results indicate demand for 200+ GW of new nuclear capacity. #AdvancedNuclear 2/x
Multiple system-level decarbonization modeling exercises over the last 2 years have concluded that, especially with estimates for #renewables buildout that account for limitations from #transmission expansion and #LandUse, significant new #nuclear power would be required by 2050.
20th century problems on 21st century #Crimea: Unlike in Soviet times, #watersupply is not any longer a complicated infrastructural, but today a simple financial issue. 1/4
A broad variety of #desalinationtechnologies is today allowing many countries with insufficient #freshwater reserves, e.g. Israel, Saudi Arabia or Iraq, to live on desalinated sea water. Yet, #Moscow is unwilling to invest money into building #Crimean d

Sol 1: #RainWaterHarvesting - Chennai has urbanized pretty fast n percolation into ground is getting reduced. Building wise RWH is one,but we need RWH in public spaces like bus stands etc; Every year Corporates spend a lot of CSR which could be used

Sol 2: #WasteWaterReuse - Currently most of the sewage is going to the sea via Cooum,Adyar rivers, Buckingham canal or ending in the lakes. This water could be reused through decentralized sewage treatment and reuse system
