PROGRAMME

The European Union must take on a triple challenge: reduction of greenhouse gases, security of supply and competitive energy prices. The revival of the nuclear industry is on the agenda throughout the world. Where do we stand in Europe? Even though nuclear energy is a matter of national competence, shouldn’t we start to consider it as a community asset if we are to create a sustainable common European energy policy?
