Environment committee  Thank you. Usually the water intake from a power plant is ejected back into the water, so when it comes to fresh water use, it's one of the most sustainable ways of using fresh water to produce energy. When it comes to refurbishment, it's an opportunity to use new systems or components to make even better use of water when it comes to waste and so on, or even to cooling.

Environment committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair and parliamentarians. Small modular reactors can produce high heat. Right now the industry relies on fossil fuels and so on. Small modular reactors or advanced reactors can produce high temperatures that can be used for industrial applications. That's one of the uses they can have, as well as producing electricity for remote sites, where right now, again, we rely on fossil fuels.

Environment committee  Hello. Thank you for your question. I can't say whether waste management should be in the private or public sector, as it depends on the outlook. For example, pharmacies and companies in the aviation field are mostly managed by the private sector, even though different departments are responsible for the safety aspect.
