글로벌 에너지 전환에서 원자력 에너지의 역할 (The Role of Nuclear Energy in the Global Energy Transition)
본 보고서는 에너지 전환에 있어, 원자력의 중요성을 강조하고 있습니다.
The continuing increase in global greenhouse gas emissions and the likelihood that targets to limit the temperature increase to 1.5o above the level seen at the start of the industrial revolution will be missed has resulted in a growing focus on the development of all forms of carbon-free energy. Solar and wind power have been the main beneficiaries in the power sector, but it is becoming clear that if climate goals are to be met by 2050 then other forms of low or zero emission electricity generation must be prioritised. This has led to something of a renaissance for the nuclear industry, the development of which has been rather stagnant since the Fukushima disaster in Japan in 2011.
