Sweden’s Nuclear Power Reversal
An ABC News article yesterday – click here – reported Sweden’s Government is planning to overturn a 30-year-old decision to phase out nuclear power, and will lift a ban on building new reactors instituted in 1980.
I have been following the Swedish nuclear story for some time, as has the world. I consider this development important as it is the result of a multi-year, hard government debate in a very social-conscious country that places the safety of its citizens in high regard.
Sweden currently operates 10 nuclear reactors that supply about 50% of its electricity. Its coalition government leaders are reported as saying new reactors are needed to help fight climate change and secure the nation’s energy supply.
