Reply to comment by ComputerSong in Nation’s First Nuclear-Powered Clean Hydrogen Production Announced. The Nine Mile Point Generating Station, the oldest operating U.S. nuclear power plant, will soon house the nation’s first nuclear-powered clean hydrogen production facility by chopchopped

But then why not use it directly for district space heating/cooling while HVAC are running full blast all around ?

But I get your point, I thought they where using the electricity from the powerplant directly through an hydrolysis process.

Because there is probably not a significant local demand for that waste heat near the plant.
