Nuclear energy in Europe: what future?

In light of the fact that the European Commission and the national nuclear safety authorities have reached an agreement on the content of stress tests for all nuclear power plants in Europe, Notre Europe is publishing a Policy Brief on the future of nuclear energy in Europe. The Policy Brief aims to frame the ongoing debate, assessing the current European regulatory framework and analysing the current status of nuclear power in Europe. It also examines the debate on the future of nuclear energy with reference both to the European energy policy and to future decisions that will need to be taken regarding different energy sources in the EU.
