Argentina renews interest in nuclear energy
Argentina aims to build new nuclear plants to curb its dependence on diminishing oil and natural gas reserves. The South American country opened its first nuclear facility in 1974, but safety concerns worldwide later prompted it to stop the use of two plants. Argentina is completing work on its third nuclear facility and seeks to construct another two by 2025, as part of its goal to obtain 15% of its electricity from nuclear sources. Reuters
