Science - Energy / Power Generation / nuclear plants

Operating nuclear power plants longer, where technically feasible, or restarting nuclear plants that have been temporarily shut down, provides immediate additional low-carbon capacity. It prevents progress from stalling or even, as former nuclear capacity may be replaced by fossil fuels, from retreating.
