IEA: EUROPE MUST INVEST
A top energy watchdog has warned that Europe could face an energy shortfall if power companies and oil producers failed to respond to rising demand.
In its first full update on the industry's investment needs in more than a decade, the International Energy Agency said Tuesday that investment in European electricity generation was being thwarted by insufficient prices, while in the Middle East social spending was limiting investment in oil fields.

RUSSIA'S NUCLEAR FOR CLIMATE CHANGE
Russia has 36 nuclear power units in operation and three new ones under construction. In March, Russia's Ministry for Economic Development published a draft strategy for low-carbon development to 2050. The strategy's basic scenario would see nuclear output grow from 203 TWh in 2017 to 225 TWh in 2030 and 260 TWh in 2050. State nuclear corporation Rosatom's foreign orders include 36 units, which are at various stages of implementation.
