The report looks at the role of nuclear energy ina future low-carbon economy. The report addresses various issues such as cost, CO2 emoission, co-generation. the complete fuel-cycle, radioactive waste management and public acceptance. It also discusses the adavantages of different future reactors systems. The conclusion is that nuclear energy has a potentially very large role to reach a future low-carbon energy system taken into account cost, overall environmental impact and security of supply.
