Unreliable electricity makes chores and work take longer, leaving individuals with little time for personal or professional progress.
Students can complete degrees without leaving their homes, but the required tools depend on a stable electrical supply and sufficient internet access.
Internet access has become an essential public utility, but connectivity and digital literacy are moot points if the power grid cannot support them.

Nuclear energy has the lowest lifecycle impact on ecosystems of any power source, with wind and some solar panels following closely behind.
Over 95% of operating nuclear plants use water for cooling. HTGRs flip the script, turning nuclear power from water consumer to protector.
