Though it has taken more than eight years from the first indications that new nuclear build in the UK would be welcomed, the prospects for nuclear within a broad energy strategy in UK and elsewhere around the world, now look very promising. The talk discusses these plans and their uncertainties based on common needs of countries to: address climate change, have stable costs and secure energy supplies. The revived interest in nuclear energy is also stimulating a range of new and different reactor designs, including those with the aim of burning nuclear waste and reducing costs.
