International Energy Agency: Nuclear energy is absolutely necessary to achieve climate targets

It is absolutely necessary to achieve global climate, the head of the International Energy Agency Fatih Birol has today supported. “Without the support of nuclear energy, we have no chance of achieving our climate targets in time,” Birol told reporters before the launch of the Nuclear Energy Summit in Brussels. ‘Renewable energy sources will play a major role in terms of electricity, in particular solar, supported by wind and hydroelectric energy. But we also need nuclear energy, particularly in those countries where we do not have a major potential for renewable sources,” added the head of the International Energy Agency.
