Evening Lecture

The presentation, delivered by FORATOM Director General Yves Desbazeille, will focus on how nuclear energy can help the European Commission deliver its overarching set of energy policies under the European Green Deal and will answer the question whether the EGD’s implementation can be achieved without nuclear. In addition, it will give an overview of the current status of nuclear energy in the European Union as well as the description of the latest nuclear-related developments at EU level (and some potential inconsistencies between overarching objectives and policies), such as taxonomy, hydrogen strategy, Euratom research budget, and many more.
