“As an increasing number of states pursue nuclear energy, decommissioning and waste management as well as nuclear security are two components essential for its sustainable use” said Toshio Kodama, President of JAEA. “JAEA is determined to work together with the IAEA in this scheme to contribute to the international community in these two important areas.”

France operates 56 nuclear power reactors, which make up over 70% of the country’s electricity generation. It has a smaller per capita carbon footprint than most developed countries. “France is already a world leader in low carbon energy generation, and nuclear energy has a major role to play in that,” Mr Grossi said.

"Nuclear power enables rapid decarbonisation on a massive scale, and it has the track record to prove it."

The nuclear energy industry has been at the forefront of applying AI to its processes and operations, thanks partly to its collaborative, monitoring-heavy and data-driven nature.

A very cold winter could trigger increased gas demand for heating and power generation at a time when European gas stocks remain well below the average for the time of year and supply from Russia continues to disappoint.

France plans to grant for an offshore wind project off the coast of Normandy. The project will have a capacity of 1,000 to 1,050 MW and is expected to produce 4.5 TWh/year of electricity.

Natural gas consumption increased very rapidly between 2000 and 2019 (3%/year) and then dropped by 3% in 2020 to 40 bcm.

Brent fell $2.32, or 3.2%, to $71.12 a barrel, WTI fell $2.15, or 3.1%, to $67.80 a barrel.

"We need to monitor how the situation develops, we must carefully monitor the market. There is no need to make hasty decisions," Novak said.

Сотрудничество России и КНР в ТЭК за последнее десятилетие успешно развивается и вышло на беспрецедентно высокий уровень благодаря совместным усилиям лидеров стран.
