Climate change due to skyrocketing concentrations of atmospheric greenhouse gases is driving an increased sense of urgency to transition away from fossil fuels to low-carbon sources of electric power. An international levelized cost of energy (LCOE) analysis shows the cheapest low-carbon source is extended life traditional nuclear, followed by hydro-electric, then solar and land-based wind at low grid penetration, with traditional nuclear not far behind. But variable renewable energy (VRE) sources such as solar and wind become more costly as their grid-penetration increases, as energy storage systems (ESS) must be added to mitigate intermittency. The cheapest ESS systems with sufficient daily throughput are lifted brick and above ground pumped water systems, but beyond a relatively low penetration threshold VRE+ESS become more rapidly more expensive with penetration than traditional nuclear or small modular reactors (SMRs). The latter are fission reactors designed to be stable to loss-of-coolant accidents, shorter time to operation, and are developing to the licensing and implementation stage. Although VREs are now all the rage, their ESS costs will tend to force international investments into lower cost baseloads like hydro and flexible SMRs as their grid penetration approaches their ESS cost barriers.

Journal of Hyojeong Academia aims to serve as a global platform where researchers and scholars of various disciplines can contribute ideas for our sustainable global community of Co‐existence, Co‐prosperity, and Co‐righteousness. The journal is a multidisciplinary, open‐access, internationally peer‐reviewed
academic journal, and it invites all areas of research conducted in the spirit of post materialism including studies centering on God, studies unifying religions and
sciences, and studies on all aspects of Co‐existence, Co‐prosperity, and Co‐righteousness.
