Renewed US interest in nuclear energy could stimulate collaboration with EU

The nuclear energy industry is seeing renewed interest recently, as the US and EU push to meet carbon-neutral goals and are pumping in billions of dollars to modernise existing nuclear power plants and fund research into new nuclear technologies. That’s a welcome boost to the industry, which had stalled after high profile accidents, including at Chernobyl and Fukushima. Funding to build costly new plants and upgrade ageing infrastructure also has lagged.
