The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) projects continued growth in nuclear electricity generating capacity to 2030, although at a slower pace than previously anticipated. The Agency highlights nuclear energy’s role in meeting global climate and sustainable development goals.
Nuclear power generating capacity is projected to grow by between 1.9% and 56% by 2030, compared with the previous estimate of between 2.4% and 68% from last year, the IAEA says in the latest edition of Energy, Electricity and Nuclear Power Estimates for the Period up to 2050.
