Govts’ recovery programs should invest in nuclear for cleaner and more resilient energy – Saudi Gazette

Govts' recovery programs should invest in nuclear for cleaner and more resilient energy. World Nuclear Association Director General Agneta Rising said, "The IEA report is right to conclude that a coordinated policy effort will be needed to harvest opportunities including moving towards a more modern, cleaner and resilient energy sector for all.". The IEA report is misleading in saying that "demand" for electricity from renewables has risen when, as the report notes, electricity consumption has fallen, by more than 25% in those countries most affected by the coronavirus.. Other forms of generation, including nuclear, are having to bear the burden of the system costs created by renewable intermittency.".
