TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the forces and obstacles to nuclear cogeneration by looking at the Loviisa 3 district heating project in Finland and found that the key obstacles are split incentives, electricity prices volatility, inexpediency of business models and regulatory frameworks, electioneering of local authorities and pessimist expectations with regards to project financing.

TL;DR: In this article, the potential cost savings and greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction of district heating (DH) systems using heat from nuclear combined heat and power plants (NCHP) in Europe were evaluated.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a concept of flexible nuclear co-generation, where a plant operating according to the concept can vary its production of heat and electricity by utilising steam on different pressure levels.

TL;DR: In this article, the socioeconomic potential of heating systems that could be developed in the Lyon urban area (France) was compared with electric boilers and central gas boilers in terms of greenhouse gas emissions and heating costs.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide the basis for the analysis and planning of industrial symbiosis in France, through the most efficient use of existing technologies, and assess the feasibility of transferring steam sourced from nuclear plants to industrial users.
