IAEA Report: nuclear power<br />

to continue to play key role<br />

in low-carbon electricity<br />

production<br />

(iaea) The <strong>International</strong> Atomic<br />

Energy Agency (IAEA) has released its<br />

latest projections <strong>for</strong> energy, electricity<br />

and nuclear power trends through<br />

2050. Compared with the previous<br />

year, the 2020 projections are largely<br />

unchanged. Under the high case<br />

scenario, IAEA analysts expect an<br />

increase of global nuclear electrical<br />

generating capacity by 82 % to<br />

715 GW. Under the low case scenario,<br />

it will fall by 7 % to 363 GW.<br />

“The latest IAEA annual projections<br />

show that nuclear power will<br />

continue to play a key role in the<br />

world’s low-carbon energy mix, with<br />

global nuclear electrical capacity seen<br />

nearly doubling by 2050 in our high<br />

case scenario. Climate change mitigation<br />

remains a key potential driver<br />

<strong>for</strong> maintaining and expanding the<br />

use of nuclear power,” IAEA Director<br />

General Rafael Mariano Grossi said.<br />

The 40 th edition of Energy, Electricity<br />

and <strong>Nuclear</strong> <strong>Power</strong> Estimates<br />

<strong>for</strong> the Period up to 2050 provides<br />

detailed global trends in nuclear<br />

power by region. The report presents<br />

its projections <strong>for</strong> nuclear electrical<br />

generating capacity as low and high<br />

estimates. They reflect different<br />

scenarios <strong>for</strong> the worldwide deployment<br />

of this low carbon energy source.<br />

From 2019 to 2050, global electricity<br />

generation is expected to more<br />

than double, exceeding nuclear generation<br />

capacity growth also in the<br />

high case scenario. There<strong>for</strong>e, IAEA<br />

experts expect the share of nuclear<br />

power amongst all sources of electricity<br />

to remain either stable or decline.<br />

In 2019 nuclear power generated<br />

10.4 % of global electricity.<br />

According to the report, immediate<br />

and concerted action is required <strong>for</strong><br />

nuclear power to reach a share of<br />

11 % in electricity production by<br />

2050, as seen in the high case<br />

the share of nuclear energy relative<br />

to global electricity production could<br />

decline to about 6 %.<br />
