Four new countries—China, Brazil, Italy, and Belgium—have endorsed the Declaration to Triple Nuclear Energy by 2050, totaling 38 existing formal signatories in pursuing low-carbon, reliable, and scalable nuclear power. The move emphasizes advanced reactor technologies, including small modular reactors and fourth-generation designs.
Germany has dropped its long-held opposition to nuclear power, in the first concrete sign of rapprochement with France by Berlin’s new government led by conservative Chancellor Friedrich Merz. Berlin has signalled to Paris it will no longer block French efforts to ensure nuclear power is treated on par with renewable energy in EU legislation, according to French and German officials.
