Traduction de «énergie électrique d'origine nucléaire » (Français → Anglais) :

Where their reactors meet certain safety requirements, these States should be allowed to use nuclear energy, for they do not have the economic resources to sustain an additional unnecessary cost just so they can replace one type of energy with another.

With this in mind, and as the Green Paper and our rapporteur suggest, in a realistic rather than an ideological way, we should address the issue of developing nuclear energy.

The recent adoption by the Governments of the Twelve of the overall energy objectives for 1995 proposed by the Commission also serves to confirm the Member States' determination to retain the main lines of their energy policies", added Mr Mosar, pointing out that nuclear power already accounted for 34% of electricity production in the Community/.- 2 - Turning to the IAEA's draft programme on nuclear safety and radiation protection, he said : "thanks to the experience it has acquired through its own research programmes in thoses areas and to its technical and scientific know-how, I have no doubt that the European Community will be able to ...[+++] make a substantial contribution to the implementation of most of the projects proposed in that framework".

NUCLEAR SAFETY IN THE CONTEXT OF THE ELECTRICITY SECTOR IN CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE AND IN THE CIS Following a discussion of nuclear safety and related energy supply needs in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and in the EC, the Council adopted the following conclusions: "THE COUNCIL, reaffirming its commitment to assist with improving nuclear safety in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and the CIS, and its awareness of the need to pursue such improvements within the framework of sustainable medium and long term energy strategies for those countries; 1. recalls the Council conclusions of 7 December 1992 and of 25 June 1993 and notes the Commission report on ...[+++] "Community assistance in the energy sector to the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union"; notes the report submitted to it and to the European Parliament by the Commission on 9 December 1993 under the title "Nuclear safety in the context of the electricity sector in Central and Eastern Europe and the CIS"; 2. urges the Commission and the Member States, in the framework of their ongoing co-operation with the countries concerned and, in particular, in appropriate international fora; - to prevail on the governments concerned to agree to the earliest practical closure of the less safe reactors that cannot be upgraded to adequate standards of safety at a reasonable cost, - to press for the achievement of safety levels for new nuclear power plants and for those maintained in service, equivalent to those in practice in the European Union, - to seek actively the development of independent nuclear safety authorities enjoying adequate means and resources in order to ensure their effective operation, and - to promote the development and implementation of adequate safeguards and controls of nuclear materials and installations. 3. supports, through the relevant European Union and Member States' means taking into account the wider energy situation and the individual charac ...

Such an instrument, specific to Ukraine, could stimulate investment and provide cover against certain risks (6) Reform of the energy sector EU assistance for restructuring the energy sector Increasing the safety of Ukraine's nuclear plants (35% of the country's electrical energy is of nuclear origin) is a priority.

Economies of scale will also bring down the cost of nuclear energy as a result of equipment optimization.
