Renewable Energy Centre: UK has nuclear future
Nuclear power will be an integral part of tomorrow`s power sources, the Renewable Energy Centre has claimed. A spokesperson for the organisation said it is safer than it has been perceived and is much cleaner than fossil fuels. `Renewable energy such as wind and wave power will hopefully provide a large contribution but we will also need to rely on nuclear power to cope with energy demands,` she explained to Reuters. Her comments came in response to the publication of a report from the Department of Energy and Climate Change announcing the entry of a third potential nuclear operator on the UK market. This move was accompanied by plans for the creation of new power stations capable of creating up to 16 gigawatts of electricity and meeting the needs of all 26 million UK homes, the department secretary Ed Miliband said. He commented this was `further proof` of Britain`s commitment to a low-carbon and investment-friendly economy.
