Nuclear energy and the industrial decarbonization imperative
Every credible net-zero pathway agrees on one thing: electricity must decarbonize. Wind, solar, and storage dominate the public conversation around the energy transition. They attract the majority of political attention, investment flows, and infrastructure planning. They are necessary. They are not sufficient. Because electricity is only part of the challen
Nuclear in a multi-technology energy system
For decades, nuclear energy has been assessed in isolation.The central question was whether to build it, with alternatives evaluated on cost, safety, and delivery. That framing is becoming increasingly outdated. As energy systems decarbonise, the challenge is no longer to choose between technologies. It is to make them work together. Nuclear now operates alo
Why the next wave of electricity demand is a strategic issue for the nuclear industry
Electricity demand is entering a new phase. Not a gradual increase, not a cyclical rebound, but a structural shift driven by the rapid expansion of data centres and artificial intelligence workloads. For the nuclear industry, this evolution is not peripheral. It goes to the heart of how future capacity is planned, financed, regulated and integrated […
Nuclear supply chain under pressure in a fragmented world
The nuclear sector is entering a new phase of global expansion. Across the globe, governments are commissioning new large-scale reactors, accelerating SMR development, and investing in advanced fuel cycles. Ambitions are bold: the EU has reaffirmed its support for next-generation nuclear projects as part of its decarbonization strategy, while the United Stat
Why Europe must rethink nuclear deployment at scale
Europe’s ambition to reach net zero by 2050 hinges on one unavoidable reality: the continent needs more clean, dispatchable, and secure electricity. Nuclear power is central to meeting this need — but only if we stop treating it as a special case or future option, and start embedding it within long-term infrastructure and industrial planning. […]
The Trump impact on nuclear energy: between ambition, acceleration, and controversy
President Donald Trump’s recent suite of executive orders marks a pivotal shift in U.S. nuclear energy policy, signalling an assertive effort to elevate nuclear power as a strategic pillar of national infrastructure, security, and economic growth. Trump impact on nuclear is reflected in the plan to quadruple capacity to 400 GW by 2050, positioning nuclear
Why global nuclear collaboration is the key to a clean energy future
From Europe to Africa and Asia to the Middle East, nuclear energy is once again at the forefront of global energy strategies. As nations double down on their climate commitments and race to secure stable, low-carbon power, interest in nuclear is growing rapidly. Yet, while national programs and proprietary technologies matter, one truth is becoming […
The new nuclear playbook: what it takes to succeed in 2025 and beyond
The global energy sector is undergoing its most dramatic transformation in decades. As countries race to meet climate goals, secure energy independence, and upgrade outdated infrastructure, nuclear energy has re-emerged as a central pillar of the transition. For decades, nuclear power’s role was debated in boardrooms and parliaments. Today, it’s being op
Leveraging blockchain in nuclear security: enhancing transparency and efficiency
The integration of blockchain technology in nuclear security represents a transformative advance, addressing the dual demands of transparency and robust security in the management of nuclear materials. Blockchain technology, known for its decentralized and immutable record-keeping capabilities, offers a revolutionary approach to secure and transparently trac
Nuclear safety reimagined: a comprehensive analysis of technological innovations and historical lessons
