 "A dozen nations to start making electricity from nuclear power, says IAEA")
In the coming years, twelve nations are anticipated to begin generating electricity using nuclear power, according to Rafael Mariano Grossi, the director general of the International Atomic Energy Association (IAEA), who made this announcement on Tuesday. At the World Nuclear Exhibition in Paris, Grossi stated that the IAEA’s estimates indicate that in order to meet the goals of the Paris climate agreement, the world’s nuclear reactor count—which is now approximately 400 units—must be doubled. “We already have 10 countries which have entered the decision phase (to build nuclear power plants) and 17 others which are in the evaluation process,” he stated. “There will be a dozen or 13 (new) nuclear countries within a few years,” he stated. Grossi mentioned the Philippines, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Nigeria, Namibia, Ghana, Kenya, Morocco, and Namibia as possible new nuclear powers. (With agency inputs)
