Greece explores nuclear power as energy security concerns grow
Greece is reconsidering nuclear energy as it seeks stable, low-carbon power amid rising global energy insecurity.According to the International Energy Agency, nuclear accounted for just 9% of global electricity in 2023.
Despite strong public scepticism, driven by memories of the Chernobyl disaster, attitudes are slowly shifting.
The government says emerging small modular reactors could be a viable future option.
Greece already generates more than half its electricity from renewables but still relies on gas for baseload power.
Earthquake risks remain a concern, though advances in engineering and reactor design may mitigate them.
As energy costs rise and demand grows, nuclear power is being reconsidered as part of Greece’s long-term strategy.
