‘Nuclear renaissance’ being driven by new, safer and more efficient reactors

A panel of experts has found that new technology in the nuclear space is enabling a nuclear renaissance after two decades of low investment into new projects in this sector, especially as energy mixes are becoming more diversified globally.

Speaking on a panel hosted by British newspaper Financial Times during its Energy Transition Summit, on November 1, new-generation nuclear technology manufacturer Newcleo CEO Elisabeth Rizzotti told delegates that new-generation, or fourth-generation, reactors are safer, more efficient and quicker to build.
