Traduction de «énergie libérée par la fusion nucléaire » (Français → Anglais) :

This amendment stresses the forceful efforts the EU is making in the field of research into renewable energy sources, which can and must be combined with efforts to generate energy from nuclear fusion under the ITER system.

83. Endorses the Commission's statements on the competitiveness of nuclear energy and notes that a majority of the Community funding under the Seventh Euratom Research Framework Programme is allocated to safety and nuclear fusion; points out that, in order to best meet the EU's strategic criteria, Community efforts should be combined with research designed to develop a new generation of sustainable nuclear technology;

For each of the three thematic areas of research - fusion energy, nuclear fission and radiation protection - there are specific objectives, which determine a series of activities to be carried out in the next four years.

The rapporteur believes that the EU should exploit to the highest degree the potential of fusion to make a major contribution to the realization of a sustainable and secure energy supply and that a “fast track” to fusion energy should be followed in order to shorten as much as possible the distance to an actual Fusion Power Plant.
