Climate target 'very difficult' without nuclear, says IEA chief economist
Wind and solar power are transforming the electricity industry, but not
fast enough to put the world on track for the UNFCCC's Paris Agreement
target to hold the global temperature increase well below 2°C, according
to László Varró, chief economist of the International Energy Agency.
This "climate stabilisation" target needs nuclear power to play a
significant role in the low-carbon power mix, Varró told delegates at
the Budapest Energy Summit yesterday. http://www.world-nuclear-news.org/EE-Climate-target-very-difficult-without-nuclear-says-IEA-chief-economist-06121601.html
