New International Energy Agency head chief sees nuclear in the future

Good view!

Room for nuclear energy in the future: new IEA chief

"If you would like to abandon nuclear, then my question is: 'How are you going to meet the growing demand of energy when you are abandoning one of your sources?", she said in an interview with AFP.

"That question has to be answered by all those countries and governments who would like to abandon nuclear."

She added: "If the answer is 'we'll do it with renewables', then my question will be 'how'?.

"How cost effective are renewables? How much are they deployed at this moment? How are you going to speed up the curve of renewables so that they're going to be a greater part of the energy supply?"




That's what I call telling it like it is! Finally, a straightforward view on the world's energy future!
