The IAEA’s Atoms4NetZero Initiative Helps Countries To Leverage The Power Of Nuclear For Net Zero
By Jeffrey Donovan The road to net zero entails a series of complex choices. Policy makers must chart an energy course based on available resources, energy technologies (including those still under development) and costs. By leveraging advanced energy scenario modelling, the IAEA’s Atoms4NetZero initiative helps countries to make science-based decisions about the full potential of nuclear energy — including for sectors beyond electricity generation — in order to prepare for the transition towards net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. “The first step for a country seeking to meet its net...
