Original Note:
117 gCO2/KWh was only calculated using the Average Emission Intensity method, and is excluded from IPCC AR5 report because it is an outlier study. UN ECE (2020) median value for nuclear: 5.1g /kWh. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life-cycle_greenhouse_gas_emissions_of_energy_sources#Global_warming_potential_of_selected_electricity_sources Latest LCA by EDF in France are 3.7g /KWh. https://www.edf.fr/groupe-edf/produire-une-energie-respectueuse-du-climat/lenergie-nucleaire/notre-vision/analyse-cycle-de-vie-du-kwh-nucleaire-dedf
