Contributions of Nuclear to mitigate CC Largest source of low-carbon electricity in OECD countries and 2nd
at global levels Already contributes to reduction of CO2 emissions from power
sector Mature low-carbon technology Different designs to meet different needs Important non-electric applications, such as −Nuclear cogeneraiton −Energy storage −Process heat applications −Desalination

Key actions for the next 10 years Offer same level playing field to all low C technologies
(electricity markets) Industry to build on time and to budget, FOAK →NOAK Enhance standardisation, harmonise C&S and regulatory
requirements Continue to share information & experience (among
regulators and among operators) to improve safety Public acceptance must be strengthened (post F safety
upgrades, fact-based information) Develop long-term strategy for radwaste management
