We welcome the "Pathways to 2050 - the role of nuclear in a low-carbon Europe" report by nucleareurope. The study shows the clear role nuclear can play in providing clean, reliable and affordable energy in Europe - reducing carbon emissions and reliance on gas all while boosting local economies.
According to a report issued today, having more nuclear in Europe would lead to a faster reduction in CO2 emissions, lower energy system costs in the long term, a reduction in energy imports (gas, hydrogen) and greater security of supply. These are the conclusions of the updated “Pathways to 2050 - the role of nuclear in a low-carbon Europe“ report conducted by Compass Lexecon on behalf of nucleareurope, which highlights how, for example, #150GW of installed nuclear capacity in the EU by 2050 will: 🌍 Save around 430 million tonnes of CO2 💶 Save €310 billion in total energy system costs 📉 Reduce gas consumption by about 180 billion cubic metres 📉 Reduce dependence on hydrogen imports by up to 33%
