| | OECD Observer: Nuclear energy: Can it help? |
| | Nuclear energy already internalises its external costs associated with waste and plant decommissioning. | | | Nuclear energy is back in the public eye in light of the concerns about climate change and the need for a sustainable energy supply. | | | State-of-the-art nuclear energy systems of the new generation, reaching commercial deployment stage now or under development for future decades, are designed to reduce those up-front construction costs and additional refurbishment and decommissioning costs. |
