This new report by the IEA looks at the opportunities for nuclear energy to address energy security and climate concerns – and at critical elements needed to pursue these opportunities, including policies, innovation and financing. Nuclear energy is a well-established technology, however it’s making a strong comeback, with rising investment, new technologies, and supportive policies in over 40 countries. This report highlights potential mechanisms to unlock financing while also emphasising the critical importance of adequate planning for the required workforce and supply chains.
