Technology Roadmap: Nuclear Energy (2015)

Abstract:

Nuclear energy can play a key role in decarbonising our electricity systems by providing a stable source of low-carbon base-load electricity. By identifying major barriers and recommendations on how they can be overcome, this Roadmap aims to assist governments interested in maintaining or developing nuclear energy technologies. To get us onto the right pathway, this Roadmap highlights several key actions to be addressed in the next decade to ensure the conditions for a safe, publicly accepted and affordable deployment of nuclear technology in countries that already have the technology as well as in newcomer countries.
