It’s all about public perception. Can the crooked nuclear industry convince the world?

Nuclear power is on the brink of a $1 trillion resurgence, but one accident anywhere could stop that momentum.

Demand for advanced nuclear reactors will be worth about $1 trillion globally, according to Secretary Granholm, at the Department of Energy.

 “The IAEA has moved quite fast
from almost an intruder into a very welcomed participant in this
dialogue” about decarbonizing the energy grid, said Rafael Grossi, the
director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency. But that
momentum depends on international cooperation around safety and best
practices. “The issue how nuclear industry works and is perceived
globally, any accident anywhere is an accident everywhere,” said Hamad Al
Kaabi, the United Arab Emirates’ representative to the IAEA.
