IAEA Updates Its Projections for Nuclear Power in 2030 (With Audio)
In his address to the IAEA’s
56th General Conference, IAEA
Director General Yukiya Amano said, “When I became Director General
three years ago, the talk was of a nuclear renaissance.” The March 2011
Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident raised “fundamental questions about
the future of nuclear energy throughout the world,” he said, yet,
“eighteen months after the accident, it is clear that nuclear energy
will remain an important option for many countries.” The Director
General referred to the IAEA’s latest projections for nuclear power
generating capacity that “show a steady rise in the number of nuclear
power plants in the world in the next 20 years.” He noted that
developing countries continue to show keen interest in nuclear power.
