Clean energy production is a challenge which was so far addressed mainly in the electric power sector. More energy is needed in the form of heat for both district heating and industry. Nuclear power is the only technology fulfilling all 3 sustainability dimensions namely economy security of supply and environment. In this context the European Nuclear Cogeneration Industrial Initiative NC2I has launched the projects NC2I-R and GEMINI aiming to prepare the deployment of High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactors HTGR for this purpose. 1 Clean energy needs beyond electricity used today for electricity production. In Europe industrial nuclear power plants produce currently 26 of all Current and future energy production electricity and 52 of electric energy from non-combustible sources. However out of all industrial and district heat Clean energy production is a high European priority and it only comes from nuclear reactors. is widely recognized as a growing need in the world. So far most of the effort was concentrated on electric power High temperature industrial heat because the solution is rather straightforward. Electricity however accounts for 18 of the total energy consumption About 95 of the process heat market in most industrial- only Fig. 1 . Other applications namely heat and ized countries is characterized by high
