In 2030, global demand for energy will be 50% more than in 2008. When one adds climate change and the forecasted depletion of fossil fuel resources to the equation, it becomes clear that more than one solution is needed. Nuclear power and renewable energy are complementary, offering a balanced and reliable CO₂-free energy mix.
