Climate change is front and centre of the global political landscape, and many are pointing to nuclear’s potential in the fight against global warming.
The International Atomic Energy Agency’s (IAEA) Climate Change and Nuclear Power 2018 report says it best: ‘Nuclear power can make an important contribution to reducing greenhouse gas emissions while delivering energy in the increasingly large quantities needed for global economic development.’
And the nuclear projects appearing around the world suggests people in power are listening. The World Nuclear Association (WNA) reported in July ’19 that approximately 450 of the world’s nuclear power plants generated 10% of the planet’s electricity in 2017.
It also reports that 50 plants are currently being constructed – otherwise known as Nuclear New Builds (NNB) – in 15 countries including China, India and the United Arab Emirates. These represent significant global investment in the nuclear sector; four plants in the Barakah are set to cost $20 billion alone, highlighting the scale and ambition of these new nuclear builds.
The future for the nuclear sector looks incredibly healthy too, with more than 100 new nuclear reactors on order or planned, and 300 more proposed according to the WNA. Most reactor projects are currently planned for Asia, making it a prime target destination for energy companies to relocate to start new developments.
For those projects to be successful though, energy companies need to have an intricate nuclear power plant recruitment strategy to make sure projects are delivered on time and without going over budget. That could be harder than they think, though.
