Who Needs Nuclear Power challenges conventional thinking about the
role of civil nuclear power in a rapidly changing energy context,
where new energy carriers are penetrating markets around the world.
Against the backdrop of a global energy transition and the defining
issue of Climate Change, Chris Anastasi assesses new nuclear build
in a fast-moving sector in which new technologies and practices are
rapidly emerging. He considers various countries at different
stages of nuclear industry development, and discusses their
political, legal and technical institutions that provide the
framework for both existing nuclear facilities and new build, as
well as a country's technical capability. He also highlights the
critical issue of nuclear safety culture, exploring how
organisations go about instilling it and maintaining it in their
operations and encouraging it in their supply chains; the critical
role played by independent regulators and international
institutions in ensuring the integrity of the industry is also
highlighted. This book provides a balanced and holistic view of
nuclear power for both an expert and non-expert audience, and a
realistic assessment of the potential for this technology over the
critical period to 2050 and beyond.
