25 Conclusion Nuclear reactors are very unique and should be exploited for high value products. The demand for non-electric applications in the heat and transportation market can be met by nuclear energy without GHG. Cogeneration could improve the overall economics of NPPs Non-electric applications will be introduced rather slowly Innovation is needed to design NPPs for non-electric applications
