NWMO is investigating the option of a deep geological repository for the long-term storage of Canada's used nuclear fuel.
The U.S. and the Republic of Korea have had a long history of nuclear energy cooperation, dating back to when the U.S. built Korea's first commercial reactors in 1978. This relationship has evolved over the decades, and Korea has more recently emerged as one of the world's major suppliers of nuclear power technologies. With growing interest
October 16, 2017 The rationale for an extensive federal role in energy innovation, particularly with respect to clean energy sources such as nuclear and renewables, largely stems from the premise that there are insufficient market incentives for long-term clean energy R&D investments by industry and the private sector overall. Clean energy innovation policy is further
Achieving progress towards decarbonizing and reducing the environmental impact of energy generation is arguably impossible without a significant expansion of nuclear p...ower internationally. However, improving and strengthening the global nuclear governance system and maintaining high international standards in nuclear safety, security, and nonproliferation are essential for nuclear power to become a more integral part of
