Nuclear energy is currently ‘in’. Especially in China. It is expected that reactors will spring up like mushrooms there in the coming years. Including to achieve the climate goals, as they say. Science expert Christian Mähr from “Krone” about the new generation of reactors.
Many sources say that nuclear energy is completely uneconomical compared to alternative energy production methods, such as wind, solar, waves and so on. If that’s not enough, a few place names are worth remembering: Tree Mile Island, Chernobyl, Fukushima. Actually, that should be the end of the matter – even though the qualified physicist Angela Merkel came to the conclusion: “We don’t want that – and thus set in motion the German nuclear phase-out!” The nuclear industry’s emphasis on creating a Generation IV reactor after Generations I, II and III is all the more astonishing. An association of more than a dozen countries has been pursuing the goal of developing new, improved nuclear reactors for a quarter of a century.
